Snow Day!

Yippee! We woke up to the first snow of 2011! This was actually our second snow of the winter. Some of you may wonder what's the big deal...well, here in the southern part of North Carolina it is very unusual to get even one snow during the winter season. Last year we managed to get several measurable snowstorms. I wonder if our weather pattern is changing.



This was the view from my front porch this morning.



What does a young country girl do when it snows?



Doughnuts on a four wheeler! That was Carson's idea of fun.



My idea of fun was a little different. I kind of liked sitting by the fire drinking my coffee.



And when I got tired of that, I sat in the sunroom drinking my coffee.



Then, I did a little garden daydreaming.



After that, I heard the kitchen calling my name.



There is nothing like ending a snow day with a bowl of delicious mushroom and potato soup.



Snow days in the south are glorious! Since we are so unprepared for clearing the roads and sidewalks down here everything seems to stand still for a day or so...and that's not a bad thing. What do you do on snow days?
