Smith’s caption “What in the world?!? “ I know little buddy it was a miracle! We haven’t seen snow once in Alabama since we moved back almost 4 years ago. It did snow about 2 years ago but of course Skot and I were out of town.

Needless to say, we were all a bit excited. I woke up that morning not to my boys jumping up and down telling me to come look but SKOT swinging open our curtains telling me to get up! I immediately put on my rain boots and down jacket and went outside. I stared in awe at the beautiful, white, glittery snow falling ever so softly from the Alabama sky.

Then I started snapping photos with my iPhone because I thought that I better document this monumental occasion before it stopped. Luckily, it didn’t stop for hours! The boys woke up an hour after us and were so excited too!

Can you spot Waldo? He’s wearing a red jacket in a weird stance.

We invited the cousins over and did what every Alabamian does when it snows… finds the most sensible make-shift sled in the garage that they can. For us it was this ol’ boogie board. I tied some twine to it and we pulled the kids around until our hands couldn’t take it any more!

This was the first snow Smith and the farmhouse had ever seen! We had the fire going all day and the hot chocolate a flowin’, it was a snow day for the books!
