Iced In!

Wow! This was the most snow Atlanta has seen in a long time...we were officially "snowed in", well, maybe more like "iced in" for 5 days straight (this was a couple of weeks ago). Cabin fever set in on maybe the 2nd day so it was a long week. But P loved sledding, & eventually on the 6th day we were able to venture up to Dawsonville to get in some REAL sledding up at Ace's parent's house.
About 2 hours after the snow started, well on our way to some crazy conditions for Atlanta

That same night
Playing outside the next morning
Every Atlantan made one...a make-shift sled (ours was the top of our recycling bin)
Enjoying an ice treat
Our house
Snowballs!

I'm going CRAZY here! LET ME OUT!

Daddy still had to work, P brought him some lunch



Eventually we made it up to Amma & Pop's house in Dawsonville, once the roads cleared up. This was the first thing Ace did once he got there...

Check out all the snow - 7 DAYS after it first snowed --- now that has to be a record for Atlanta!

Christmas

Merry Christmas! OK I'm I few days late...
We spent Christmas with the Baker family in Birmingham this year (Thank You for hosting the masses!), along with Ace's parents as well...quite the house-full. 5 kids & 6 adults made for a fun family Christmas though! And a WHITE Christmas, I might add, not bad for the South!

Here are some pictures of the kids with Santa, er, St. Nick...now that's a St. Nicholas if I ever saw one.
Charlotte telling Santa she wants a doll & a stroller


"Is your house on fire, Clark?"


The girls or as Parker said, "TWO BE-BES!!"




The best one I got...



Getting ready to read "The Night Before Christmas", headlamps & all


Parker checking out Santa's Eats
