Snow in the Deep South?


OMG! They are predicting a major (major for us, anyway!) snow event Fri night/Sat morning! Multiple inches! It has been such a loooooooong time since we have enjoyed some real snow. Our last major event - the Blizzard of '93. I was sitting in my mother's house, finishing cross-stitching the ring-bearer pillow that would be used in my wedding the next weekend. We were listening to the radio, and heard a woman pleadingly inviting anyone remotely near her church to please come bring a bag to pick up some food, as her wedding had taken place that day and her guests were not able to make it to the church, leaving her reception uneaten. I sat there, looking at the 6+ inches of snow in my parents' back yard, thinking, "This is going to be me next weekend." The sun came out and did its job, and we were all comfortably in the 70s by the time I donned my white gown. Stay tuned... I'll let you know how much we get!

We didn't get the snow. My kids were sad/
