My first real snow day! (image heavy)

*More pics under the cut*

I've been spending the weekend with my brother and sister-in-law in Ringgold, GA. We've been doing stuff in-town the past few days but today it actually snowed! If you know where I live, we never get snow. I've only seen a small amount about 4 times in my life, one time being on top of a mountain.

The shot above is from the bedroom window. I got dressed and took some pictures for you guys Eye


The first time my car has ever been covered in snow, too!


The front yard


Snow on the trees


Kinda wish a deer would pop out or something.


Their street. The tracks going down are from my brother's jeep, because he had to go to work today.


Another shot of the street


This reads "Quad Wuz Here"


Now I know how Bambi felt when he walked around in the snow.


More trees for ya








A Quad was here recently...


Poor birds...


I really liked how the birdbath got covered.






They still have a christmas tree out


I guess we won't be grilling anything today.


Delilah (Brandy's sister) and Sadie being silly


Delilah got the most snow in her fur.


Delilah, Sadie, and Jack



Birds anyone? The picture quality on these really suck because I had zoomed in as far as I could on them but we tossed some seed out and eventually they all came down. There were cardinals, a few robins, and some others including some black and white birds I have never seen before but really liked (they looked like little Quads to me) -







This is the black and white bird I was talking about. Doesn't it look like a chubby Quad?

He must have gotten a transform spell.










I think this is the Quad-bird again.














Another neat bird that had brown wings














Maybe later I'll snag some of my sis-in-law's photos for you guys. She was using a better camera and got some really great shots.

I think that's the same storm system that'll be hitting where I live tomorrow night. Laughing out loud Looked like it's moving across the entire country.
BUILD SOMETHING IF YOU CAN. (Unless it's the kind that doesn't stick together?)

Not sure, I've never dealt

Not sure, I've never dealt with snow enough to know. My sister-in-law said this was a powdery kind but we threw snow at each other earlier. I might try to make something out of it when my brother gets home from work.

Added the bird pictures but the quality isn't great on them.

Beautiful photos. :'D Bet it

Beautiful photos. :'D
Bet it was fun watching the dogs fooling around in that snow?
I always laugh when I walk my and my sister's dog, and I let them run on a field that no one else uses in the winter, so it's filled with snow and the dogs have to jump all the time to even be able to get forward. xD

...no pun intended.

That's more snow than I've ever gotten to see xD It doesn't snow here very often, although we had two years in a row a while back. Only a couple inches and gone the next day, though.
Snow's awesome, but way too cold for me - brr!

That's awesome Quad, and great shots! I'm from one of those places where we get so much snow, it's a burden, but I love seeing people's reactions to it when they don't have snow on a regular basis! ^^

By the way, those Quad-birds are called Dark-eyed Juncos (some people simply call them Snowbirds). They really are adorable little guys!

Oh my God, these are all so pretty! >w< I love the little birds and that one Cardinal is amazingly radiant! O.O We've had snow like this over here since the middle of November, though XD

I'll never look at Juncos the same way again now. XD

That's the guy! Thank you, Trigger!

Guess we gotta keep them from eating any kind of beans, or else they'll turn into bird-rockets!

Welp, looks like because of the snow, I'm gonna be up here a little while longer. I was supposed to leave tomorrow but depending on what my brother says I may leave Thursday or Friday now. Guess I know how you guys feel when you say "I hate snow!" XD

I haven't walked around in it much, just that first bit yesterday. My brother might want me to go sledding with him when he gets off of work, though.

Oh, sledding! Yes, try to

Oh, sledding! Yes, try to make the most of the snow if it keeps you there x3
