Taylor's First Snow

This past Sunday we had our first snow in Americus since we have lived here. I have always been skeptical whenever I have heard anything about snow or flurries or anything in south Georgia. It just doesn't get cold enough, and even if it did snow it wouldn't stick to anything. Well, Sunday morning as we were getting ready for church it started snowing flurries. I was so surprised considering the day before the tempurature had been in the 70's. It was truly a sight to behold - even though it didn't stick to anything. At the end of the service our pastor announced that we wouldn't be having any services that evening because of the weather. I thought, okay whatever. Well, again, after lunch it started snowing and this time it was a little bit harder - more than just flurries. We got in and got Taylor down for a nap. While she was sleeping the flakes got bigger and it really started coming down and actually stuck to the ground and the trees for a little while. It was so beautiful! I wish I had gotten a picture of it. Who knows when we will get another snow again. By the time Taylor got up from her nap it had slowed down quite a bit and most of the snow that was on the ground has melted. We took Taylor outside to enjoy the snow, but I am not sure that she understood what was going on. Like I said, it was just flurries at this point, so it wasn't much different than rain to her. Here are a few pictures we got of her playing outside all bundled up.


Taylor didn't have any gloves so we had to put some of mine on her.
