Our First Snow

QB and I had been inside playing Parcheesi when I wondered about the weather. After pulling back the curtains, I saw snow on the ground and he opened the door to discover it was really coming down.

Here was the view from our porch:

So, we bundled up and took a late-night walk around the neighborhood, hand in hand, under the heavily falling snow - a near miracle in these parts (not the hand holding, the snow)!

We walked past Miss Eudora's house on Pinehurst. I tried to take a picture of her house, but it was dark and my camera didn't cooperate. Maybe she just wanted to be left alone! So, here's a picture of the street sign.

We had our own small-scale snowball tussle, took some photos and enjoyed the moment. Below, a house on Poplar with their Christmas lights aglow.

We heard the Belhaven college students thoroughly enjoying themselves - yelling and laughing. We walked across the campus to find them sledding down the hills into the soccer bowl and having snowball fights. Photos of the campus:

QB wrote "I love U" in the snow.

We made our way here and there in the neighborhood, passing a house on Linden where several people were out on their porch, each wrapped in a blanket, talking and watching the snow. What a special and fun way to ring in our 1 week wedding anniversary!
