Here in the Deep South, we don't get snow every year. When we do, it's usually less than an inch. So when we got three inches of snow last night, it was quite a big deal. It started after dark and continued well into the night. I was so excited when I woke up this morning, I felt like a kid on Christmas morning--except instead of presents from Santa, I got snow! I woke up early in anticipation of the winter wonderland that would I find outside my window, and waited anxiously for my husband to wake up so we could go outside and walk in the snow together. I took a few pictures to share with y'all. Enjoy!

| Up close, snow looks like miniature sculptures. |
 |
| No birds using our birdbaths today. |

Water droplets freeze on the tips of camellia leaves.
Camellias don't mind occasional snow. |
 |
| The irises don't seem to mind the snow, either. |

Onions are the only thing left growing in my square-foot
garden after all the cold. |

| I think holly bushes look loveliest with a fresh coat of snow. |
