SNOW!

Christmas day we were projected to get snow in Raleigh :D A white Christmas is everyone's dream right? WELL, by the time we left my mom's house it had started to flurry some. We headed to the Martin's house and on our way there (about a 15 minute drive) the ground ended up being COVERED in snow! When we got to the Martin's there was about an inch already on the ground. CRAZY difference!

Unfortunately, I started to feel really bad and found out that I had a fever :( we decided then that we wouldnt make it to church the next morning. I took a bunch of meds and went to bed. Turned out when we got up, nobody had gone to church and the service we usually go to was cancelled anyway! There was also no power. We were out of power for a few hours, but we made the best of it :D When we looked outside it was truly a winter wonderland :D SO PRETTY! After the power came back on we all got dressed up and went out and played in it! I did not let being sick get me down at all! It such nice snow. It was decent packing snow, but could have been better. We built a snowman :D Of course he was NC State! I hadnt built a snowman in YEARS! so it was fun. Did I mention we got 8 inches at his parents house?! I havnt seen that much snow since I was little! Snow pics!

Winter Wonderland!

Snoopy is COVERED!

You don't see this much!

8 inches!

Look at him being mean to me! You shouldnt be so mean to your wife, John ;)

Kisses to make up! ;D

Johns family with our snowman!- the snowman borrowed my hat ;D

We gave him a new hat bc my head was cold. lol. me and my sweetieSilly family pic!

We are a Wolfpack family :D
After we played we got in the car and drove to the store for some milk, etc. We got some snacks to make and munch on while we played board games. We had dedicated this day to playing games with his family since we had already gotten to a bunch with mine. We had gotten a bunch for Christmas since we love games so much, so I was EXCITED!

When we got back we made some snacks and set the games up! We played a game called Would You Rather (from John's parents) first. It was a lot of fun. Then we ate some soup and grilled cheese :D Mine had jalapenos on it. SO YUMMY! they all thought I was crazy, but that's what my mom always made me! LOL. Then we played a game called Buzzwords. I LOVE IT! :D I love word games though, so I enjoyed it. :D I think they all did too. After games we all got together and watched Sound of Music. I had never seen it. I know, I know. It is definitely counting as one of my classic movies to cross off my list! It's Mama Martin's favorite so we watched. Of course I loved it :D

Overall, it was a fantastic day. VERY relaxing and it was exactly what I needed :D I got my snow fill for sure!
