Yeah, It Snowed!!!!

So we all woke up to a wonderful surprise and wasn't it beautiful! It snowed so hard, it was like a mini blizzard to us! I told Coleman that it might snow last night so when he woke up I said, guess what? He said, What, I said, it snowed you want to go and see it? Oh yeah mommy! I took him to the front door and he was like wow! He saw snow in the mountains but for many of our little ones, never at home, at least not yet! We at biscuts and headed out the door after a whole LOT of bundling up poor thing. We played for a while and he loved it, it was so neat falling so hard and so fast it was everywhere. I know why kids think it's so wonderful because it is, and it IS so magical. His nose was running all over the place but he didn't give a rip and he swore up and down he wasn't cold, and with all those clothes, he may not have been but his cheeks were like beets they were so red, I had to beg him to come in. I told him we would make hot chocolate. So we all went in and made hot chocolate and sat by the fire and watched the Wizard Of OZ! He loves it! Caroline loved the snow as well, she was frolecking like a little pony! So anyway, I was like, "Man, I wish we had a snow cone machine, that would be so neat!" And then, it hit me, I DO have one. Pop and Nanny gave Coleman a Sponge Bob one for Christmas this year, so I got it out of the closet and we made snow cones. It was awesome and Coleman loved it, he couldn't stop eating it, he was obsessed with the snow! Also, Patrick's sister Leslie, uncle Matt and little Jack lives in South Carolina and since we can't see them, we set up the web cam on the lap top and they set up theirs and we called and could talk and see each other, that's the baby in the computer picture. It was neat!! So hours later I was like he has got to be tired, so I put him in his bed and no way was he going to sleep. So after a few minutes I thought he was probably hungry, so I got him up and he wanted some cake and ice cream. He wouldn't eat anything else and so I gave in and let him have it since it was snowing and we were having a super fun day! So of course after that he wasn't going to sleep yet and who would after all that, so we decided to let him go out again since it stopped snowing and that it would probably be gone by the time he did go to sleep and woke up. So we finally got to build our little snow man, earlier we were pretty much getting blown away! Coleman helped and we made him some button eyes and a nose, he has stick arms and a lid! He was just the right size for my buddy and he was pretty tickled about it as you can see! Patrick bombed us with snowballs when I wasn't making him take pictures and video!! It was neat to see all that snow in Bama, I don't think I will ever forget waking up to this, family and snow!
