Every year when snow is forcasted, Dennis makes sure that we all know there will be no snow. So, when the Tuscaloosa County School System's million dollar weather computer predicted anywhere from 2 to 7 inches in Tuscaloosa, Dennis was the first to contradict the prediction. And, even though they were 95% sure that this event would happen, Dennis was still skeptical. So, when it began snowing Sunday afternoon (and it was beautiful when it first began), I started getting excited and disappointed at the same time. I wanted to see Libby with the snow, but I didn't want to take a weather day this close to Christmas holidays. The worst case scenario was the result: Libby would have to play in ice not snow, and we missed a day of work and will have to make it up in April. Needless to say, Libby did not play in the ice, and we missed worked.
Below are some pictures of our house and yard. We did get a little snow but nothing near what was predicted.
If you'll look close at the front door, you'll see Roe, as in Marilyn Monroe, peeping out the front door. She is the little white spot on the porch. She absolutely refused to go outside to do her business. Dennis finally had to carry her out and not let her back in until she did.
Here is a closer view:
We've had a good many birds at our bird feeders, but the bird baths were frozen over.
Last year when the weather got into the zeroes, the fountain on our pool froze. It was not quite cold enough to freeze this week.
Here's hoping that if we are out of school for another snow day it will be a true snow day!
