Snow.

They're calling it the Blizzard of 2011. My hubby (who was born & raised in the Adirondack Mountains of upsate New York) begs to differ.

All I know is that there's about a foot of snow, the wind is whipping like crazy, the high is 16* and the windchill is -15. For this Southern girl, the term "blizzard" sounds about right.

"Momma! Look outside!!"

Due to a crazy, extremely rare winter storm, South Carolina got DUMPED with snow last night. Charleston registered almost 3.5"! We moved from the base out to Summerville, and while the official total for the town was 4", we clearly got more than that at our house! (In case you can't see it, the ruler is completely covered up to the 7" mark! SEVEN INCHES!)

So Serene

This was the scene in my backyard this morning.
