A White Christmas in GA

It really did happen! We had a white Christmas in GA this year! That's right folks, it snowed on Christmas for the first time in GA in almost 130 years!

Even though we don't celebrate Christmas and Santa does not come to our house, I have no problem admitting that I LOVE the sites and sounds of Christmas! And, it's probably no surprise to many of you reading that I secretly want a Christmas tree of my own to decorate :-) No joke, I love Christmas time!

I know there is much more meaning to the story of Christmas and that the commercialization is probably what I am drawn to most but to having a white Christmas was just as fun for us as it was anyone else.

I love the snow and growing up in MD we saw PLENTY. So, whenever it snows here I get so excited and I think I was most excited this year for Spencer to experience it.

To be honest, I don't think he really new what to make of it and by the time he had his snow gear on, he could barely move. I think he was more happy to come back in to the warm house and play. Who can blame him, right? Maybe next year he will enjoy it more :-)

Bill, Spencer and I spent most of the day inside the warm house. It was just what we needed. A day to relax and spend time as a family. Christmas evening we braved the roads and went to the Summerfield's for our annual Chinese food dinner. In years past, we have always gone out to eat but now with 3 kids to consider between our two families, take out/delivery was a better choice!

Hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful snow as much as we did! A winter wonderland indeed!
