This past Friday, December 8th, 2017, the state of Alabama got a huge taste of a Winter Wonderland. The previous day local weather reporters informed us there would be a “light dusting” of snow. Schools and businesses had delayed openings, and everyone (including myself) seemed to think that by mid-morning day to day activities would resume and we would be lucky to see a snow flurry. Well, we sure got a “light dusting” and WHOLE LOT more. Enough snow to declare a SNOW DAY! While watching the snow fall and sipping my coffee, I quickly realized that my children were lacking snow gear and we needed to find some quickly. For the last 2.5 years, my husband and I have been in survival mode with the twins and snow gear has never crossed our minds. I mean let’s be honest, Alabama is not known for “Winter Wonderland” type weather, and last year it was 70 degrees during the Holiday Season. With that being said we made a quick trip to Target and grabbed the essentials. Once we acquired the boys’ snow gear we were ready to take on the snow. My husband cooked his delicious taco soup, Christmas music played, and the Stevens’ family snowman was built. It was pure magic! Special memories were made and fun was had by the whole family!
Anne and Jimbo Graham, family friends/former clients, sent me lovely pictures of their new home during the snow day. The Graham family were long time Vestavia Hills residents looking to downsize and live closer to Highway 280, which provided them easy access to their retreat on Lake Martin. We found them the perfect home in the Cotswolds Subdivision. They immediately fell in love with the fresh/light look and smaller size. I was thrilled to receive these lovely pictures and to know they are so happy in their new home.
The Snow Day was one to remember. I hope you and your family have a wonderful/blessed Holiday Season.
