....to have a white Christmas in Alabama....but we got it this year!
We woke up Christmas morning to this...
and as I type this, the day after Christmas, it is still snowing! Two days of snow is really unheard of around here. Right now we have about 6 inches! That is also a rarity and by the way it's snowing right now we're looking at an inch or 2 more. Wow! I love it. It's beautiful. The only down side is that church was called off today and we really can't go anywhere. It's 29 degrees so the roads are covered over and icy and there are no salt trucks in site. Oh well, we have great indoor plans. Bethany and I are going to make cookies in a little while and both the kids get lots of time to play with their great Christmas gifts. Oh yeah, we got a WII gaming system "for the kids" that is keeping Brandon and I busy! We love it! Hummmm, I think stew or chili will be in the plans today too. Yummy.
Here's our little crafty snowman. He has button eyes, a sewn scarf and a ribbon mouth. :-)
Ain't he cute?!
Speakin' of cute, here's my niece, Presley (my sister's daughter)...
Is she not the most adorable child?! She just had her 2nd birthday and she is so sweet. When she sees you come in the door she runs to you for a hug saying "HI!" at the top of her lungs and then there's the sweetest little "I uv you" while she's hugging. Another cute thing she does is saying "I sorry" when she bumps into you.
Oh and of course out of all the great things she got for Christmas, at Nana's house she decided the box was the best of all!
I know you have a pic of your kids or grandkids like this. The box is always the greatest!
I hope you all had a great Christmas.
Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
Blessings...

Hi Melina,
Big snow! I posted some on my blog, too. We didn't have as much as you, though. It did keep us from going to Tuscaloosa for Christmas. That was a huge disappointment and the first time I haven't been with my extended family for Christmas..kind of sad. But, the day ended great with my sons and their families getting here safe and sound. Have a good Sunday and fun in the snow.
Oh, I meant to tell you how beautiful your niece is and look at those gorgeous eyes...just a doll.
Awesome pictures, Melina! YAY! for snow!!!! Sounds like you and your family are finding wonderful ways to enjoy it. And how adorable... love the pictures of Presley!
Hugs!!!
Melina,
I'm so happy you're having such a great time with the snow, and of course, we all have pictures of our children in a box.

Melina, we are also up to our "knees" with snow in NC! This is a lot for us - started early this morning. Your niece is just precious! She just brings a smile to my face. Enjoy the time with family, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Hugs,
Marsha
What beautiful pictures. I love the snow but we never get any around here. Thanks for sharing nature's beauty.
Sounds like a wonderful Christmas! I can't believe all that snow:)
What a cute snowman. And my kids still LOVE the boxes more than the gifts inside them!!! I don't even know why I bother with the actual presents!!
What a beautiful thing - snow on Christmas..
I also know a Presley - who is two and they actually resemble each other - kind of freaky actually!
