Quakes?? In Georgia!!??

Nothing like getting woken up or "shaken up" at 10:30 p.m. by an earthquake. Poor Georgia needs a break from Mother Nature. 

Baby it's cold outside!

Snow finally poured over Atlanta last night! We woke up to a beautiful snowfall this morning! A much better scenery then ice! 

A good couple of inches here and there.

Snow angels!

A little more sledding to add to the mix.

"Do you want to build a snowmaaaaannn"? Says my inner soloist (Frozen). This is Pax, named after this storm. Isn't he cute?

My sweet girl and I. Bless her heart, she call only last a few minutes before begging for a hot shower and hot cocoa.

The weather is suppose to get up into the low 40's today which will melt most of our winter storm and the 60 degree weather will take the rest of it with it this weekend. I think General Lee needs to be punted for his fraudulent weather forecast of spring being close.

Sledding!

Finally convinced Al and the kids to do a little sledding! 

All bundled up and ready to go! Yes, we found the gloves and mittens unlike two weeks ago but that's just how we roll in the ATL.

Carter getting ready to brave the slopes!

Perfect landing!

Layla's turn! She was so excited!

My turn! Got to love my military issued combat boots and hat. Who would have thought I would be quite the snow and ice fashionista?

For such a short distance, it was a rough ride down. Sometimes it's good to have a big butt.

My photographer thought he was being mighty cute capturing me spun out at the bottom of the hill. I mean, he is rather cute just not with the camera.

And finally Al's turn. I don't have to tell y'all what karma is.

No spin out for Al. He is just not a pro like me (sarcastic voice).

As always...

Hot cocoa for my babies! Al and I have big plans for our hot cocoa that includes but are not limited to: these two going to bed and some Baileys to spice things up a bit. Totally kidding!  Seriously, these two are going to bed...early!

Iced in!

The Atlanta Hardins are officially iced in. We got a nice dusting of snow yesterday followed by an ice storm. We are to expect another 3-6 inches of snow by tomorrow morning. 

This is only the beginning. Praying we do not loose power.

It looks like beautiful snow on the road but is a huge sheet of ice.

What our street looks like now.

Sorry, just had too! I couldn't convince Al and the kiddos to come outside with me for an ice pop..literally!

27!

Well it's official, I made my debut 27 years ago today! Had a wonderful birthday at home with my hunny and kiddos!

Circa February 1987! Love my mama's very 1980's nightgown!

27 years old AKA: 21 for the 7th time.

Sitting with the best gifts ever!

Making a wish! Well Carter and I anyways. I think Layla is thinking more about how good that cake is going to taste.

Another year down and many more to come!

Walhalla

My crew and I went up and visited Nana and John in South Carolina this weekend! We had a great time visiting and catching up.

Lunch at the Tiger Tavern in downtown Clemson.

What a fun weekend! On the way back to Lawrenceville.

Basketball Banquet

Carter had his end of the year basketball banquet this weekend and was so excited to add another trophy to his collection. He's come along way since his first practice although he still wants to throw the basketball like a baseball. Lucky for him, baseball season is about to start!

Hard working boys and gal. What a wonderful season.

Carter's excitement is clearly written all over his face. Bless his heart, he really just wanted to eat his cake and quit taking pictures.

Our trophy!
