Waiting and dreaming...

Now we are just waiting. Watching. Hoping. Looking up at the sky. Please don't be wrong. Please give us 1-3 inches, they're begging! Mom! Do those look like snow clouds??




About 3:30 they ask, is it supper time yet? Because that's what time the snow is supposed to arrive.

But this is Alabama. This is Alabama, right?

Was I dreaming or was it just a few weeks ago that my yard was a sheet of ice...



...and I had to send my husband to work with an overnight bag complete with food provisions in an over sized military survivalist looking get-up...



Oh yeah. That was a few weeks ago. And it wasn't a dream. Even the last part.

When she wakes up tell her to look outside! It is so pretty, but I have a feeling in a little while its going to be pretty messy

Alabama is very different this year, isn't it? You think you know your state of choice pretty well after 49 years, but I guess that's what makes life exciting.

I'm looking forward to the 60+ temps next week... and then probably a couple more ice/snow storms the week after.

Who knows!

It's crazy here in Texas too! Snow, freezing weather, we have no idea how to manage it! Lisa~
