The "snow" has arrived! At our home it's more like a very thick layer of ice that is turning into slush. I was not here for the blizzard of '93. My family and I lived in Sunny Florida where we swam on Christmas Day. For the majority of my life in Alabama, snow flurries have been limited. Predictions of snow were seldom followed by actual snow. For this reason, I adopt the "I'll believe it when I see it" attitude. We went to Walmart to pick up a few things on Friday. We had no plans of getting milk or bread but one quick glance down the bread aisle made us decide to pick up a loaf. There were very few loaves left with the majority of them smushed or open. The storm was not supposed to hit until Sunday but people were panicking all week. Sunday came and we expected to wake to beautiful snow but when we woke up, there was nothing! That night we heard the sleet and within 20 minutes our yard was covered in ice. Schools are closed, roads have been closed, and our cars are frozen but we have yet to use our loaf of bread!
This is Walker's third snow in his very short thirteen months. The first snow he experienced was in February 2010 when he was only three months old. His second snow was on Christmas Day but it did not stick. Here are some pictures from Walker's previous snow experiences.
