Well, we can finally say that it snowed. At least in Orange County, NC it did. It started on Saturday around 2 and didnt stop until after midnight. It was beautiful! We all got a chance to play in it and do the typical snowball fight and snowman. It wasnt until later that we realized that we had left out the snow angels. All in all, it was great, and Gabby had a blast. This was the first real snow for her and once she figured out that she could eat the stuff, all she wanted was snow. I had to put some in a cup just to get her in the house. I never realized that 2 yr olds could be so stubborn. As you will also see, we spent the day prior to the snowing playing in the yard and riding Josh's dirt bike. Niki, my oldest, finally drove it, and is convinced that she doesnt need a man, just a job and she can have her own bike. (she is in her last year of nursing school) Even Gabby got on it and loved it. You couldn't get her off of the thing. I had to laugh though, she did not smile the entire time she was on it, but try and get her off and she would scream. I don't get it, she is definately her daddy's girl, next he will want her to ride on the Harley with him. It always starts out small and then it blows up on you.

 

Anyway, I got a rude awakening on Monday. There may have been snow at my house, but when I started listening to the news, (fingers crossed that the roads were bad and impassible) I quickly learned that all of the snow in Wake Co was gone. So, miserably I had to get ready and go in, fussing the whole way. I guess I should be happy, but I would have killed for a day at home. Well, so much for wishful thinking, huh?? I think North Carolina is the only state that I can go outside and freeze to death one day and the very next day wish that I had opted for something other than the sweater I'm wearing.
