Snowed in, so I bought my mother a dozen roses for her beautiful kitchen table, and we headed back home when the roads were too icy for driving to the tram to sled down the Smoky Mountains this afternoon. It has been a great day, as the snow continues to fall...

(Beautiful church in the snow I photographed on the way to Gatlinburg to catch the tram for sledding)

Playing in the deep snow...

...counting blessings as my grandmother is feeling well this Christmas. (She lives with my mother.) My dad is getting over his cold, as I have yet to get sick! A few days ago my mother told me, "You might get snowed in." I said, "No, I am sure it will not stick." I was wrong!

It was fun taking photos in the snow outside of Gatlinburg, TN. We have to get to the tram in order to make it up the high mountain for sledding, and the mountain road to Gatlinburg was covered in ice with about 2 feet of snow. We plan to attempt the mountain road again tomorrow to go sledding before I head back to Atlanta!
