Then Sings My Soul

February 12, 2010
Snow in Alabama!!

There is no doubt that nature is His greatest masterpiece.
Thank you God for giving us such a beautiful creation to enjoy.
How Great You Are!!


I have noticed a pattern. Every time Dave and I plan a party at our house, the weather becomes quite unusual. This time, however, no complaints at all!! I was so happy to have a snow day. My biggest excitement was to get a picture of our new house covered in the white stuff. I've been dreaming of doing that since before we started building. I didn't think it would happen so soon after moving in!!!

We woke up at 6:00 am on Friday morning to rain/sleet. I was SO DISAPPOINTED! I was just about to go back to sleep, when I look out the back windows and saw


SNOW!!!



I turned on the logs and enjoyed the view all morning.



My view from the couch.




Look at those big snowflakes!!



By afternoon, the snow had stopped, and everyone in the neighborhood was ready to
PLAY, PLAY, PLAY!!



Dave rolled the snow up like carpet. He didn't know what he was going to do with it.


This might end up on our Christmas Card this year!!
I'm sooooo thrilled to have a photo like this!


John built an igloo.


Dave decided to turn his snow into a chair. Here's Tamara modeling on it.


He rolled up another and made an ottoman.



Group shot around the igloo.

What a wonderful day! We are worn out, but trying to get things ready for a baby shower here tomorrow night for Josh and Anna. I didn't spend my whole day playing. I had a snow day/sew day too. I'll post pics of what I made and baby shower photos SOON!!

  1. Fun, fun, fun!!! I have never seen snow rolled up like that. There has to be a special trick to it.
    So glad you "kids" had a snow day.
