Snow! Yes, we Houstonians went ape as we encountered snow on our way out to Georgia. We heard rumors that this mysterious, captivating, white flaky substance existed but it is a rare sight indeed when you live where we do. When we hit I-20 around Birmingham we found an awesome little patch so we had to jump out and experience it. Emily went straight to pouncing around and making snowballs to fling at Daddy. Josh was quite exctatic as well. Emily lost all control at one point and flung her little body down into the snow and made her first snow angel and of course Joshua followed suit. This concluded our short snow detour as Emily quickly realized that snow, snow angels and no gloves = cold and the detour concluded with tears and whimpering. But she soon enough warmed back up in the car as we continued on our journey.

On Wednesday morning we had even more unexpected fun in the snow as we got to go 'sleighing' (as Joshua put it) in Whitney's sister's backyard. Emily of course continued to pummel me with snowballs as well (one in the neck, head and back) and she also opened up her own snowball stand where small snowballs were free and large ones were $1 (she is definitely a born entrepreneur).
