Fun in the Snow in Central Arkansas!!

Large amounts of snow in Central Arkansas are RARE!! Most of the frozen stuff goes north of us but every once in a while, we get some white stuff that is unexpected. And it happened this week here in the Little Rock Area.

It started Sunday night and continued through most of Monday into Monday night. Reports around the Little Rock area ranged between 3 and 7 inches!! We had about 4-5 at our house!!

The kids, of course (as well as Glen - the big kid), had fun in it. It was PERFECT snow for making snowballs and snowmen!!

And as I write this on Thursday night, the snow is STILL HERE. Most snows are gone the next day but this one has stuck around because of the cool temps. It is so cool to look out and see white! It makes the song lyrics "our sins were as crimson but they will be as white as snow" become so real as we see the white snow cover up all the imperfections!! Thank You, Jesus!!

Enjoy the pics!
