Snow Day

If finally snowed in NC!!! It was only 3.5 to 4 inches, but Ross got off of work and so did I. So it was a nice day spent together. Something that seems rare lately. Ross went out with the Jeep looking for people to pull out of the ditch or just put back on the road. But it seemed every time someone went off the road they abandoned their car right then. So he had no luck pulling people out, but he did have fun driving around. And found lots and lots of ice. When he got back we went out to the store. I had some good deals that were ending and I needed to get. So Ross brought me to Teeter and we went on our short shop. When we got home we played the Wii and just hung out. It was nice just to be with Ross all day long. He did beat me at Wii bowling twice, I got him once, and tennis a few times. But that's ok I'll get him next time! :-D The wind was blowing so some spots in the yard had a foot and some spots had 4 inches. Here are some picture of when we were out and our house.

The main road was iced over.

So that was the major snow storm of 2009. Yes I know it's nothing big to you northerners but to us it's a lot. But I don't think the ice is something I would like to play with or drive on.

First Snow

We got our first snow that stuck in Wake Forest on Nov 21. We had a day where it flurried for about 5 minutes a week before that. But now it is back to the 60s. I really want a white Christmas but I guess we moved the wrong direction, further south. Should have moved to the mountains, they've got lots of snow!!! Right now the forecast for this week is mid to upper 60s. Two days ago we had the heat off and windows open because it was the 70s!!! Then again you never know if it'll snow....I'm prying for a white Christmas at least!!! The day we got snow I woke up about 6:15am (had a 7:30 class) and it was still falling, the cats were at the sliding glass door looking out like what the heck is that. If you picked them up and put them down they would go right back to the back door. I took some pictures, but by the time Ross got up at 9-9:30ish it was all gone!!! That day I wish we had a screened in porch to put them on so they could touch it. Here's some pictures of the snow.
