Waking up to a winter wonderland

We are at 3 degrees windchill this morning, and it looks like we might actually keep this snow for a couple of days -- fun!  There is a treacherous layer of ice under the snow-coating...so everyone around here is homebound for now.  We're going to do school while we wait for it to warm up a little bit and then I'll set the kids loose to play in the snow!

 

 

 

All of you in the North will probably laugh at us, but that's okay. I grew up in central NY, where there's an average snowfall of 115+ inches a year, so I do know what real snow is...but I've lived in the South long enough now to get excited whenever we see snow!  Although different from the kind of snow I grew up in, this is fun, too...a little bit two or three times each winter, no shovels required, and 70 degree days likely to pop up not too many weeks hence!
