Lower Alabama (or LA as some refer to it) has really run the spectrum on weather this winter! We have had many tornado warnings that have sent us to the closet. Fortunately, none of them have touched down around us. As a kid growing up in Texas, I remember learning a "fire drill" meeting place in the case of a house fire. My kids are growing up with a tornado drill plan! One night we were under the sirens for basically 4 hours. And when I say "under the sirens" that is very literal! One of the weather sirens for the county is not very far from our house so when it goes off...WE HEAR IT LOUD and CLEAR!!!! This is how we man our tornado stations for the night. Thank goodness for walk-in closets so we can all sit and do homework!
We have had our fair share of warm days here and there. And then today we woke up at 6 am to a snow storm! I noticed the snow around 5:30, but our kids have seen snow before and I had mixed emotions on waking them up! Lauren woke up at 6 so excited, so we bundled the little girls up and took them outside. Lyndsey thought we were going to go play on the slide and she quickly said take me inside when she saw the snow. Lauren was not interested in playing without Corynne (who was over at a sleepover at a friends house). The snow did not stick for long. By 8 am it was already disappearing. Even though it snowed throughout church, none of the snow stuck.
