Snow!

In my part of the south we usually have about two good snows per year. But because we are still in the middle of a big drought and are on level three (no outside watering, 4-minute showers, etc.) water restrictions, I really wasn't expecting much in the way of winter storms this year.

But yesterday we woke up to snow! It didn't last long, but it was nice while it was there. It was enough for all the public school kids to get a day off. And because two of my kids had dental appointments anyway, I gave them the day off to play in the snow, too!
