It was a pleasant surprise to actually get snow in Murfreesboro. This was probably our biggest snowfall in years....about 4-5 inches here. Friday was a great day for watching the snow fall, however, we did not play out in it due to late naps for the kiddos. When Saturday came, we still had plenty of snow, but it was blanketed with a sheet of ice. Not much fun for snow balls, snow angels, snowmen, etc. It probably would have been great....and fast....to sled on, however there is but ONE hill in Murfreesboro. It is around this time of year that my heart yearns for home....Signal Mountain. I have so many memories of the numerous snowfalls we would have and sledding on the hills that filled our neighborhood. Even if it did not snow much off the mountain, we ALWAYS had plenty up there. If I live in Murfreesboro my entire life, the true joy of a good snowfall and sledding will be something my heart regrets never getting to do with my boys. As you can see, we didn't have a sled so we improvised....with the wagon. The boys loved us pulling them all around the yard. You can see Caleb enjoyed his first snow (we didn't get him out in the last one)! The boys are getting so big, but I am loving getting to do all these fun things with them.
