Well, somehow we were deceived.
Somehow the 2 years that either the Hawkins family, Jonathan, or I were in North Carolina, it snowed lots, and was VERY winterish weather!! Come to find out the truth...it hardly ever snows in our are but twice or three times a year, and usually it just stays around for the night, or 1 day. Slightly depressing, I know, but we'll have to stick it out since this is where we are :)
However, one such snows happened last Tuesday! It started snowing sometime between 5 and 6AM, and Jonathan got to stay home from work! We went for a wonderful walk to our little town, and had coffee and a little breakfast at a little restaurant. The eventful moments of the walk were:
1) A passenger train went by while we were on Main Street, and it was SO awesome watching the powdered snow go flying everywhere!!! We weren't close enough to get sprayed, but it definitely was a sight to see, and the boys ADORED it :)
2) We visited a local pawn shop, and Jonathan found an awesome lever-action gun that he has been looking for. He didn't get it, but its cool knowing that they get them in often.
3) Tyler lost his sweet little mitten!! Jonathan retraced all our steps, but couldn't find it anywhere. I am not very happy about it, but what can you do?
When we got home, the boys played outside for awhile in the snow before it was naptime for Tyler, and we needed to start fixing lunch. It stopped snowing around the time we got home, but the 2 inches (Yes, only about 2 inches) that we got stayed around for most the day :)
