Inauguration Day and SNOW!!!!!
















WOW...what a day! No matter what religion, race, ethnic background, gender, age, or political party even the inauguration day of President Barack Obama was monumental and something I believe is very exciting for people living today. With myself being a news junkie (i.e. before Kassidy), it was hard to pull myself away from the inauguration events happening on the television to go play in the snow. That's right, I said snow! In February, Billy and I have been here for nine years. While many people come and go and nine years to stay in one place in the military is a long time we have managed to do so. We hope that we can be here even longer since we have bought a house, have a wonderful church family, and friends that we can depend on. However, one of the things we have missed out on is the snow that we are used to getting in WV. Since living here in NC, we have had an ice storm which is not really fun at all and only a few snow dustings that really did not amount to much at all. On January 20, 2009, it finally came and it came and it came and it came. It did not stop all during the night before and snowed half of the day on Tuesday. We got around 6 inches of snow. As you can see in the pics, we took Kassidy out but she was less than thrilled. She liked walking around but as soon as she would fall or I would try to bury her legs in the snow, she started crying. It probably didn't help because we bundled her up so tightly that she could not move. I'm sure as she grows older she will appreciate the snow more, especially when it means no school days. The kids in our county was off school all week long except for Friday and then they were made to go on Saturday which would not be fun. Hope you enjoy the pics and sorry it took so long to get them on the blog as usual.
