A Surprise Snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We woke up this morning to see some falling white stuff. The weather man did not predict this storm at all and it was a total surprise to see the snow falling. At first is was falling just a little, then it fell so hard that things in the distance were not visible at all. Unfortunately, we did not receive as much as some did to the north of us. We only got 1/2 - 3/4 of an inch. My sister in Falkner (10 miles away) got almost 5 inches and they made a snowman taller than a man.
These horses were not enjoying the snow at all.
This picture shows how hard the snow was falling in Ripley.
Sledding down the hill -- we just had to be creative with what we have.
We collected 9 other children while we were walking through town in the snow. My niece and most of my nephews as well as some friends walked home with us to play.
The kids used big trash bags to sled on. It worked fairly well, but I was wishing for more snow.
Most of the snow has disappeared by this point.
