Tender Tennessee Snow

My, oh, my! It actually feels like February today! I got excited when I received a text from my wife, Meredith, this morning that said nothing more than, "SNOW!"

So, I looked outside the window...pretty much nothing...BUT as of 3pm, we are getting some snow. Although, just like any snow that we get in East TN, it doesn't really stick (despite it being below freezing...it's 27 or something.) At least it's pretty as it comes down...and that snow smell gets in the air. Love that!

Just gotta watch out for icing roads tonight. That's always the fun part of getting snow and winter weather in the South. No matter how many times it's happened, no one is really used to it, so the roads get really crazy...the schools close...and the store shelves are empty, too. Glad I don't have to run to there for anything tonight-- all the milk, eggs, and bread will be gone. HA!

If you have winter weather, I hope it brightens your day!

We came out of church tonight to a blanket of snow and it pouring down over everything. It was that perfect kind of snow that looks like a Christmas card scene. Natalie couldn't contain her excitement...she was just bubbling over about how she wanted to catch it on her tongue!
