Hell froze over...

IT SNOWED IN GEORGIA!!!

Bella has been wanting to see and play in snow her entire life...and now she finally can! Thank you to all our northern neighbors, who so graciously shared their snow. We actually wanted some, lol!!!
Bella's first snow

Catchin' snowflakes!

Can I load the snow in my yard and send it to you? I'm so sick of this white stuff! Glad Bella is enjoying it though!

We got 5 inches here in coastal NC. It's crazy!

just call me jo said...

It's lovely, especially the first time. Just like a lot of other stuff, however, the joy soon dwindles. We're from Idaho and moved to AZ precisely to get out of the pretty cold, white freeze.

Weather is so crazy right now! We have had almost NO SNOW in Utah for the past 2 1/2 weeks.

I'm glad Bella enjoyed her first snow!

So glad Bella got to enjoy a first snow. Great pictures too.
We got about 3" in AL. My kids have enjoyed it.

I think that you have as much snow as we do and I'm in the north. It's cute to see you all having so much fun with it.

Beth said...

I take for granted that we see at least a little bit of snow every year. She must have been thrilled!

If you want to give her the thrill of her life ship her up here to me in jersey...we'll take her sledding and I can toss her in a snow pile over her head! My kids will show her the ropes of snow angels and snow men. If I could figure out a way to send some of this to you I would! I'm SNOWED OUT!!!!!

So pretty all we got was sucky rain. Now if we had lived closer to dallas we would have gotten some, but we are too far south!

Heatherlyn said...

Snow is magical. I'm happy for Bella!

AliceKay said...

Yay for Bella. She did good making that snowball. :) I'm glad she got a chance to play in the snow.

I'm glad Thomas arrived safely back home from getting the pizza.

It didn't stick down here in Florida, but many people were still excited to see snow for the first time!

It was great here in Alabama. It was beautiful yesterday while it snowed and after...it was gorgeous this morning...and when it was gone...bam! It was gone. Glad Bella got to experience snow first hand. I was 16 before I ever saw the stuff.

Haha! These are great. I live in Colorado. Sometimes in the ski towns we get three feet in a day. But, I have a lot of compassion for you guys who are not used to it! I am glad that you guys took pictures---you can come here anytime and have some snow!

I am your newest follower following from the award that tammy gave us both! I hope you will pop on by my blog and follow back if you would like. Happy Valentines Day! Juliana from A Blonde Walks Into A Blog

What a snowball she made! We had a good time in our masses of snow today. It's not all bad here in the frozen tundra!

Margaret said...

CB said...

Wow you really got quite a bit. I think snow is extra fun when you are not used to it. When we moved here from California years ago I could just sit and watch it I was so fascinated!!
Glad Bella is enjoying it. So pretty!

Alexis AKA MOM said...

Pizza the perfect snow day dinner :)

Deanna said...

Yea for Bella~!!!!! It is awesome that she got to experience snow for the first time in her life.

MaBunny said...

Yup, this is the time of year when we get snow in TX if we are going to get a lot of it. We got between 11 and 12 inches here in Dallas. Looks like ya'll got close to that there! Pretty pictures and I'm so happy Bella got to see and play in her first snow - she won't ever forget that!

Vickie said...

What a great moment for Bella!!

Your pictures are so cool!You can actually see the snow falling!

ChicagoLady said...

Looks like Bella had a lot of fun out in the snow. I heard on the tv or radio, somewhere, that the only state in the US where it hasn't snowed is Hawaii. Amazing!

LadyStyx said...

Ya know, the delivery guy showed up with all these boxes of snow and I told him... "My dear friend's daughter Bella is wanting some of this too so why don't you take a half dozen or so down to Georgia for me..."

You Are Welcome

Lovely pix!
