Snow Much Fun!!!

No scrapping post today, but boy, I can't wait to scrap these photos (and I'm not posting all of them, that would be too much!!)

These were taken on January 31, 2010, the day after our "big" snowstorm in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. We decided to get dressed up in our ski gear and go make snow angels in our backyard. Of course, there were some snowballs thrown too....LOL!!

Since we moved back to the area 4 1/2 years ago, it has never snowed. It was a lot of fun to watch it fall and then get to play around in it (for the next week...too!!), but let me tell you it was no fun to drive around in! Also, the schools were closed, so my girls did not have school for a total of 7 days....can anyone say "Cabin Fever"??? They were grateful to go back on that Thursday, and so was Mommy!!

Be sure to come back on Friday and see my latest creation for The Shoe blog. Until then....

xoxo,
Karen

The snow is coming down!

Well, the weather man was right for a change! I can't actually believe it is snowing here!! I totally kept telling everyone it wasn't gonna happen, but I guess I'm eating those words right now...LOL!

Here is a pic of my DH standing in front of our house. It's funny, he doesn't like snow or coldness, so I am very surprised at how giddy he was this morning. When we went skiing/snowboarding for Christmas he wasn't that excited about the snow, but I guess it's because it wasn't actually falling then, it was already on the ground....LOL!! I want him to go out in it and make snow angels so I can take pics, but he doesn't want to "ruin" it....are you kidding me?? In front of our house, down the street view.

Backyard pics:


My oldest daughter is not so excited about the snow. She's just laying in her bed sleeping, so I guess I wont' getting any pics of her in her snow gear playing in it. I'll update if she changes her mind. On the other hand, my youngest daughter isn't even home so I have no idea how she is enjoying the snow. I guess she and her friend will have some fun playing in it. Hopefully her friends mom will take pics and share with me....LOL!!
Since I don't plan on going anywhere in this mess, I will be home scrapping the day away if my DH will let me...LOL!
Til next time....
