Yes, everyone panicked. Every county in the metro area closed schools, majority of businesses were closed and people up north are probably laughing at us... BUT, in the south's defense - we aren't really equipped to handle snow. We don't have shovels, or snow plows or lots of salt trucks (whatever they're really called). Majority of our cars are not 4 wheel drive. Our stores don't even sell sleds! So, while it's a tad dramatic to call 4-7 inches of snow "Storm Watch 2011", there is a little room for understanding...
We actually got about 4-5 inches of snow (I didn't measure)! AND Clover enjoyed it way more than she did last year.
Here are some pictures of us playing in the snow today:
On a side note - it is HARD to layer maternity clothes! I'm 28 weeks tomorrow (is it just me, or has this pregnancy flown by?!?) so I had a hard time finding clothes to keep me warm! By the time we came inside, my booty was totally numb! We had fun though!
Too cold for me, from a children author
