Our one snow of the year

We may have scarred Spencer's love for South Carolina this last week. He is well aware that we are moving sometime this year once Bill finishes, and that wherever we move is going to be a lot less temperate a climate than Clemson, SC. Well, when we got hit with a pretty decent snowstorm by South Carolina standards this weekend and the kids had a grand ole' time playing Saturday morning, and then a few hours later the sun came out and it started melting, he was devastated and informed me that he didn't like South Carolina anymore and we needed to move right now to a place that gets more snow. 😂  My poor child that would just as soon wear only underwear at home and regularly tries to go outside without much more on. Colorado or Vermont or Canada or wherever else we end up is going to be quite the shock to the system, lololol.

Nevertheless, it was a fun little snowstorm, the best kind of snow for snowball fights and building snowmen. We had a great time playing in it for awhile while Chloe napped. And then I rolled my eyes Monday and Tuesday as the school district cancelled or delayed school while the roads were completely dry and Genevieve didn't get to go to preschool, much to her dismay. But whatever. That's part of the experience living in a sun-loving state that doesn't really do winter. And there are some very good things about that. I have no complaints about light jackets in January. The mountains in Colorado are calling, but I'm going to enjoy the beach and the warm water while I have access to that before we answer that call.
