March Snow in Alabama

On March 1st, believe it or not we got snow in Alabama of all places. The Chesser family spent almost all of the month of February sick. We all had that lovely sinus crud that was going around. For three weeks we laid around the house and did nothing. On March 1st we followed our normal Sunday morning routine. We got ready for church and headed out. We had some snow at our house but just a dusting. The roads were clear and our driveway was too! As we started into to Trussville the snow began to fall and pretty steady. We got on to I-59 and right past Deerfoot Parkway the interstate was closed. We finally made it to church and us along with 75 other people (our church has almost 4,000 members) continued with Sunday School. After that we started home and the snow was starting to melt. By the time we got back to our house, the snow was gone in our yard. We went next door to Joe and Sandy's house and made a snowman and played in the snow. My mom said we were so ready to get out of our house that we were the only ones crazy enough to get out in this weather. That is so true!!!! Alyssa had a blast in the snow and loved making a snowman. Needless to say we had a good time. Alyssa is only 2 and a half and has already seen to snow falls in her life. If she keeps this up she will have seen more than me in no time. Good news!!! Chad made it home on February 28th. We joked and said he brought the snow with him from Antartica. We are glad to have him home!!! Til next time!!!!

Snow really happens in Alabama! In March!
