Well...our wishes FINALLY came true! We got about 4 inches of snow on Friday afternoon!!! That's quite a rarity for this part of Georgia, so we had to make the best of it! As soon as Abby got home from school, we went out and started "playing". We had so much fun going sledding, throwing snowballs at each other, and just enjoying the beauty of freshly fallen snow.
This picture shows one of the main roads in our neighborhood. It was so PRETTY!

Here's Brittany heading down the hill in our backyard. Talk about a speed demon!
Surely you didn't think I'd pass up the opportunity to get in on the action!
Another snow covered road in our neighborhood.
Abby's about to crash and burn! No...I didn't laugh hysterically when it happened. What kind of mom do you think I am? :)
Bella on Day 2 of the snowfall. She had the time of her life...can't you tell?
Abby and Chris having a sledding race. The look on her face says it all! :)
The snow stayed around until about mid-day on Saturday, then it started to melt, sadly enough. It sure was nice while it lasted! In fact, I can't recall the last time I've had so much fun! Sometimes, it feels GOOD just to let loose and live in the moment!

Morning April,
Glad you got some snow and had fun in it! It has been a crazy winter of snow for everyone. Love the fun pictures!♥
Beautiful pictures. First time we've had snow like this in about 20 years. We had a blast.
Great pictures! I love the one of Bella! It looks like you all had a great time. Snow is so much fun when you're not used to getting much. That's how I felt with the first snowstorm this season, but now I'm ready for winter to be over!
Visiting from SITS. Love the fact you have more snow in Georgia than we have in New England. Nice snow shots.
I love how everyone is writing about their fun snow times. I just wish I could love it the way you do. (Maybe if it wasn't here for 5 months)
What fun pictures! Glad you enjoyed your snowfall! We've got plenty of snow here, but instead of sledding I'm trying to remain standing as I walk across the yard to feed the hens every day - it quickly turns to ice with some misty rains we've had!
I'm glad you made the most of your beautiful snowfall April! Looks like you all had lots of fun. You won't be seeing much--or any--snow in Alabama will you?
All the sled pictures look so fun!!! I love all the looks on your faces... just pure joy!!!
And little Bella looks like a snow-baby bouncing around in the white fluff! :)
You all had just as much fun as we did...We stayed out till almost 10pm Friday night and early Sat. morning. Oh what fun us Georgians had this Valentines weekend.
Looks like a great snowy, fun weekend.
Blessings, andrea
Oh how fun! We NEVER get snow here, but we actually had a little back in December and the girls loved it. Not nearly as much as you all had though. I love love love that photo of Bella, I cracked up when I saw it...I love your little Bella.
Looks like you ALL had a great time, good for you!
Wasn't it fabulous??? I love your pictures and the neighborhoods looked so different with snow, huh?? We got to have the very best of it, and then back to business as usual, lol!
GREAT photos! love it!
Looks like so much fun. Yup, you gotta enjoy it while you can. Being in WI we have 4-5 months to "enjoy" it. :o(
Hi April
I am so glad you got snow and were able to make some wonderful memories of Georgia before you move. You all look to be having so much fun. You are lucky having a slope like that in your back yard to sledge down right there. Your pictures were so pretty.

Oh, I'm so happy you got snow, April!! Looks like you all had a great time- love the picture of you flying down the hill! *LOL*
It's sad to see it melt so soon, but it's fun while it lasts.. we had another 4 inches overnight and I've been playing.. ahem.. I mean "working" around the farm on the 4wheeler! *giggle*
By the way- come by my blog when you get the chance- I think you'll be glad you did!!
Wow - how fun!!! I love sledding. It looks like you guys had such a fun time. I love that picture of you with your arms out!!!
XOXO

Love your pics! Glad you enjoyed the snow...as for me and snow...we're done...I don't want to see it any more...bring on spring! LOL! I really love your dog in the snow picture!
April, thank you for posting the pictures of it actually snowing! We were in Orlando "doing Disney" from Tuesday through Saturday. So yes, on Friday, when we got 3-4 inches of snow, my boy MISSED this "biggest snow of his lifetime"! We did get back in time for him to make a whole snow family with the girls next door, and to have snowball fights, too. But to watch it fall, and STAY on the ground? We weren't here! So I will show him your pics and we'll live it vicariously through you. I'm glad y'all had so much fun... it was truly a perfect time to remember, wasn't it?
great pics...we traveled to Atlanta on Friday night...we made it to mile marker 11 and decided it was just too dangerous to continue...love your pictures! Thanks for sharing!
It's good to see a family having some fun in that nasty stuff.
Hi, April! I loved these pictures. Y'all had a blast! And the snow was truly beautiful. I saw a poor Siamese cat this morning, huddled next to a big oak tree in the sun, looking miserable. Florida animals do not like cold. I felt so sorry for him.
I used to love cold, but I'm getting old, too, because I can't wrap up in enough clothes to suit me. LOL! Isn't that pitiful???
XO,
Sheila :-)
My goodness you guys look like you are having so much fun...hard to believe, I have not been a sled once with ALL this snow!! With just the two of us...do we even have a sled anymore??? It does look fun, though.
so cute we had so much fun in the snow too!
Glad you had so much fun.
Great pictures, April! Looks like ALOT of fun time had! Great memories!
Looks like you all had a great time playing in the snow, April!! Thanks for sharing the pics of your day!!
Hugs!! Carrie♥

: ) I am so glad snow makes you happy April :) Since we have so much and it is snowing as I type I am not quite as delighted as you are : ) but, I am ALWAYS delighted to see your daughters smiling and happy! So fun! Hope you have a nice warm day in Sunny Atlanta : )
We got 3 inches in Central Alabama...and I loved it. I did not play in it...but I took my camera out and spent an hour photographing it. it was fun...and we woke up again this morning to snow on the ground...wow...twice in a week....
