when it snows in nashville...

...you build a snowman,

...ditch school, work, and church (all canceled),

...play in the snow, three days in a row,

...go sledding on make-shift sleds (cookie sheet),
...don't leave your house for 3 days (residential roads are not plowed),
...bake something delicious (brownies)
...light candles on the brownies, sing "A Happy Family", and hold a "Family Party!"

And the weekends not over yet! School is canceled again for tomorrow.

I really love snow days. I like having Pete stay home and play.
Now, if only they'd cancel school because of too much sun.

i'm not fat...

...I'm just wearing a Snuggie.

new year's day blizzard of 2010

Photo taken on our wooden porch (seen on the left), with a piece of black card stock as the background. That's almost as good as it gets in Tennessee. Our Nashville blizzard has included very little snow, but plenty of sub-freezing temperatures. 13 degrees F this morning at 5:30am during my morning run- yikes! Tomorrow's low, 9.
