I HEART Snow Days!

Living in the south, there is nothing like waking up in the morning and looking out your window to find a blanket of white on the ground! Of course, no matter what your profession, it usually means that you can crawl back into bed because with even the slightest dusting of snow, entire towns seem to come to a hault. But, although it may be an inconvience for some, I LOVE it! I love the fact that it's a "surprise" day off and I love that you are forced to slow down. I love hanging around the house and not really having to go or do anything. That is exactly how today was and it was wonderful. Chad and I slept late and then when we finally did wake up, I made some yummy muffins. We enjoyed those by the fire and sat around in our pj's (or at least I did) and watched a little TV. We also got to see Daisy experience her first time in the snow. She wasn't too fond of it. She ran out, looked around some, did her business and then quickly returned to the warm house. I can't really blame her. It only made it to 32 today! We also got to spend some time with our neighbors. They had a clever way of keeping warm (see me modeling it in the picture!). Then we came back home, I made a pound cake and we just goofed off the rest of the day. It has been an awesome day! A much needed halt in the business of life! I am thankful for so many things and today one of them is SNOW!!! :)
