As a family, we love all the seasons. But there is a certain thrill we all get anytime . . . . it snows! The girls run from window to window and ask to make snowmen. Mama makes hot chocolate (sometimes even from scratch), chili, and hot apple cider (the real stuff we have made ourselves from the apples at a dear friend's farm). Even the farmer enjoys seeing "how slick things are", trying to walk through the drifts, and taking us all on a drive to see the beautiful landscapes. This is one reason I know (at least for now) we were not meant to live in the deep south.
Funny story - Ella was having an absolute blast sledding down the medium sized hill with Daddy. "Faster Daddy - let's do it again, but faster" she would say. THEN they went down super fast and hit a huge snow pile which subsequently sprayed all over her face, covering it completely. Her face was cold and wet, but not hurt in the least. She was traumatized starting bawling and wouldn't go down again. She says,"Sledding is no fun with snow in your face." Truth.
The girls warming up and drying off together.

Funny that you say that. Snow is the reason I know I'm not meant to leave FL. Admittedly, my experience with it is extremely limited, but was disliked regardless :) Looks fun in pics, though!
