Winter Storm 2011












So North Georgia was hit, yet again, by another winter blast...8 inches of it to be exact (at least in our yard)! What a day--Kelly and I both were home and able to enjoy this tremendous amount of snow. Living in the south and not being equipped with winter toys we had to improvise...with laundry baskets, trash can lids, and even an attempt on a pizza pan, finishing off with an antique sled (that was mine when I was little) that Ganny and Pops brought over that didn't tread too easily. The kids rolled, dove, buried, threw, jumped, slid, etc. all in the snow...they had so much fun. We ended the day with a nice big pot of Santa Fe' Chili and cornbread and settled down to watch a little football (Go SEC)! I'm not sure when our little town will recover from this; businesses and schools are closed and the people are stuck at home...of which I believe most are enjoying. So we are going to continue to eat, drink, and be merry all in this fun white stuff! We love it!!
