SNOW!!!!!!!! SNOW!!!!!!!!!! SNOW!!!!!!!!!

Snow is a rare and wonderful thing here in coastal Virginia. Yesterday, there were many predictions about the amount of snow we were getting today plus dire predictions of ice on the roadways and even dangerous snow drifts caused by high winds. So, I woke up this morning and turned on the tv to see that very exciting sight... the crawling closure bar at the bottom of the screen! Schools closed all over, courts closed, universities closed, even chicken processing plants were closed! I eagerly pulled back the curtains and saw... nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. Well, the weatherman, who is looking a little nervous at this point, tells us that it's coming. Should start at about 9:00am. Stay home if you can, no need to risk it. I pull on my jeans and take Fin to work with me. We won't be there long, after all. We'll be headed home by noon.

This picture was taken at about 3:00pm.


This was taken while I was saying, "C'mon, Fin! Play in the snow so Mommy can take a picture!"


She was not amused.
