If the Globe Gets Any Warmer
The last few days in Alabama have been snowy, baby! I don’t even remember the last time we had a significant dusting so to have several inches on the ground more than once this winter has me wondering if the government has pointed the HAARP towards the deep south.
The ionosphere must be out of whack to see this in my front yard:
1. The beginnings of Snow Girl aka the first snow creation my kids have built since 2000 which consequently makes it the first they remember. She has a much larger base but Luke couldn’t lift her middle section. I’m so glad Papaw didn’t decide he had something to prove and throw his back out trying it anyway. How do you explain that to your friends?
2. Boy Three on Snow Girl’s original backside. She’s definitely got some junk on her trunk.
3. No day in the snow is complete without a snowball fight. This isn’t going to end up well.
4. Boy Three nailed Two in the face. I don’t like where this is headed.
5. His hair is even invested in this warfare. Warfare hair. I need me some of that.
6. Three knows he is in trouble so he runs to hide behind me. I locked the door and continued taking photos like any good mom would.
7. The finished Snow Girl complete with the obligatory hat and broom. At least we gave her a smaller tail.
We just got a phone call saying that is school is out again tomorrow.
Somebody point that HAARP at my head.
One of my good friends who lives in my former small town in rural MN called me last week to say SHE WAS PULLING HER HAIR OUT over all the snow days this year. They have them a lot in the country (yes, even in Minnesota) because the buses have to travel on dirt roads for miles and miles, which isn’t tenable in snowy conditions. I felt her pain! One snow day is fun. Four is insane.

At least it is a snow day for actual snow and not just the possibility;)

That was sweet of you to let snowgirl borrow your Sunday hat….lol…
Super cute snow girl! We have 3 feet here and it’s snowing, AGAIN!

I had to Google HAARP – never heard of that one.
Your snow is the kind we get here on the rare occasions we get any. (Which was NOT last week!) I’ve never made a snowman without the grass being mixed in – or to still have lots of snow left on the ground! LOL
I’m guessing your glad you don’t homeschool?!
I love snow days with our kids!! I live in West Liberty, Kentucky and as of right now we have about 8 inches of snow! Have fun guys and enjoy !

I love snow days…..of course, I’m a teacher :)
PS. Even though I teach science and I realize that my thinking is heresy to the global warming and el nino people, Job 37:6 says ‘For to the snow He says, ‘Fall on the earth…’ and 38:22 ‘Have you entered the storehouses of the snow…’ Apparently, the Lord has a reason for emptying His storehouses this winter.

YOu preach it Tripp…Natural cycles I say…;:)
And y’all, lest you get the idea I don’t love my kids – we have had a blast the last few days. I’m just ready for some routine and we’ve done the snow play. Now it’s icy and the kids can’t even go outside which makes for some serious cabin fever.
And Linda, HAARP is the thing that crazy dictator, can’t remember his name, accused the US of using to cause the Haitian earthquake. The conspiracy theorists are going mad with it. I think it’s hysterical.
Lisa – go look at my blog – I posted snow pictures too – we had snow in middle Georgia too! A rarity! My friend told me they look like Narnia…because of the lamp post on our gate at the end of the driveway!
Hey…guess what the UPS man brought me??? Books by a cute PW from Alabama!!! Yee-hah!
Love you girl,
GA Jan

I wish we had snow… Utah is supposed to have the best snow on earth? But their is no snow in the valley to enjoy…. Please God, let it snow (…on Thursday, I have to drive to the big city on Wednesday! ~ lol)

I’m an Ohioan who has lived in Kentucky for the last 15.5 years. (Is that possible? When did I get old?) Anyway, I’ve been enjoying the more Southern version of winter. You know, a couple of snows each winter, none of which stick around for more than a few days. Not this year! Ugh!
But I love your photos, especially the Warfare Hair. Awesome.

We live in Fort Worth and had 8 inches at our house last week. Some areas had up to 13 inches. C.R.A.Z.Y. Loved it. Go check out our pictures on my blog!

At least you had enough for snowmen. Ours was a little lacking this time around. I did not post on it, but my sister Rena did. No matter what, it’s fun any time it comes around. Even if it is freeeezing!

I think it’s safe to say that I am terribly jealous of your snow experience. It’s been cold here, no doubt, but we’d LOVE something to play in! Loved the snowman. :) Love you, lady!

Two memories from that snowstorm in 2000.
1. Boy #2 saying, duck (stuck)
2. Boy #1 saiyng that God knew there was a little boy who wanted toplay in some snow.
Oh, wait, theres three…
3. Husbands telling their wives that the dean of the school said not to bother looking at closing notices that the school wasn’t going to close for snow, only to have the school name appear on the TV right after that statement :-)
