White stuff

So the other day it got REALLY cold outside. We were all bundled up and were about to settle in for an early evening in the movie room when I looked outside and something weird was happening. The sky was grey and then all of a sudden it all turned white. I mean ALL turned white. Kaitlyn ran downstairs and said 'Momma! Look!!' She was already in her pajamas so we just put rain boots on her and her big coat on let her go outside. Mikey went outside to check it out too, but he was NOT as big a fan as Kaitlyn was (yeah Mikey- Mama's boy!!) He lasted about 45 seconds, started crying and wanted back in. He said 'Rainy, Winnny' (Windy) and that was the end of that. He sat on my lap and watched Kaitlyn act a fool out of the windows from then on. Aunt Cara called a little while later and asked if they (Cara, Gary, Emma, Madison and Zane) could drive up and spend the night to play with us in the morning!! What FUN!
The next morning we had a fair amount of snow to play in and it was a sunny day. We actually dressed the kids appropriately (ok, maybe Mikey was a little OVERdressed-- ever see 'A Christmas Story'?). Kaitlyn had a great time and it reminded me why I really do like Carolina snow. One day of snow and then the sun comes out so you can play in it and enjoy it in warm weather and dare I say- short sleeves?! And then it's gone the next. PERFECT!
