Snow Day Part Two: The Meltdown

Miracle of miracles...there was more than one snow day! It's funny because last week, my parents had Tuesday and Wednesday off for snow and I certainly never imagined that my week would be a repeat of theirs...albeit with a lot less snow. Of course, this is Mississippi snow and so as soon as the sun peeked over the trees today, it quickly turned into an icy, slushy, muddy mess. Just a few photos from the meltdown.

Baby, it's cold outside!

Yes, I have a hoot owl hat for when it's cold. And it is awesome. 

My tiny snowman lost his hat overnight....boo.

Here comes the sun....which means there goes the snow!

Ice or snow?

What was once snow...now mostly ice...

Watson & I took a walk in the woods...& found what looks like a little "pond" behind the house.

A perfect little paw print in the snow.

Icicles forming on the satellite wires...

Up close - with a photo bomb from Watson.

Snow? Nope...just an icy, muddy, slushy mess...

Still enjoying exploring every teeny crunch & crispy patch of snow....

Icicles melting very quickly since they're hanging under the dryer vent.

The only place the snow is staying...frozen on top of the solid ice in the wheelbarrow...

The snowman is giving up the fight...by the afternoon, he'd lost his arms...

The back yard before sunset....

You'd almost never know it snowed...
So - that's about it. Tomorrow it's back to the daily grind of work, life and trying not to hit any patches of ice on the drive into town. Fun times!
