Their first snow!

My brother and his wife, Adrienne "AD" and their four kiddos: Charleigh (11), Baylee (almost 10), Riddick (just turned 5), and Maddox (3) drove into TN to spend Christmas with us. They arrived late on Sunday night. My parents also made the drive and their arrived on Wednesday. My parents purchased a second home in Greeneville a few months ago. Greeneville is "the big town" that is about 25 minutes from our house in Bulls Gap. It is where we do everything. (John works there, homeschool, ballet, church, groceries etc.) The house is right around the corner from Abigail's ballet which is so nice when we need somewhere to pass some hours between rehearsals. 

Any-who . . . 

Keith's oldest three kiddos have never been in snow! These are Fort Lauderdale peeps so snow is a big deal. To get snow on Christmas Eve?!? That's like the BIG DREAM, right? 

Unfortunately, the snow was due to turn from rain to snow right around 4pm and get pretty nasty overnight so we made the decision today that they should head back to Greeneville and see the snow at "their" house so they didn't get stuck on the farm overnight. 

You can see that even on their drive to Greeneville, it was getting nasty out there. They left right on time!

 


And then, they were back at my parents' house and it was time to enjoy the snow. Better to enjoy it this evening when it was still in the 30's. Tomorrow the HIGH is 25!

Yum!

And here is a look at what our farm looked like before bed. They are predicting 3-6" which is a LOT of snow for our parts. I am pretty sure the last time we had a "BIG" snow like this was in 2016.  This was our very first snow on our farm, but Grama and the kids and I were on a vacation to South Florida and missed it. Scrubs had a blast though! Here is how it looked before bed:
