SNOW!

We woke up this morning to snow! We were very surprised! In the 2 1/2 years that we have lived in Charlotte, they call for "wintry conditions" throughout the winter, and we have yet to see anything wintry. So we were surprised and excited to see the snow falling.

These first pictures are from an early morning stroll with Owen. He really liked looking at the snow while we were strolling. Once we sat him down to take the pictures, he wasn't so sure.

Here he looks in awe of the white stuff falling all around him.



Now he's trying to figure it out - very inquisitive.



There's a smile!



A little while later, we went back out and played with some good friends who happen to be our neighbors too!

Here is Owen with Bennett (sitting) and Celia Kulp (standing).



Matt and Owen borrowed Mr. Jake's sled for a quick trip down the hill.



Here is a shot of all of us - Mr. Dave and Matt made this great snow man! It was perfect packing snow.



Our first family photo in the snow!
