The interstate was COVERED and the snow was falling hard and fast!
Daniel and Alexander checking it out
to see why they traffic was not moving. We sat in this same spot for at least 30mins.!
and here is Daniel with his "I'm not so sure about this" look! HA!
We were about 40miles from Bryson City and we knew that we would NEVER make it with all the snow, so we stopped at the first exit that had a hotel! I guess you can stay that we were officially snowed in at the Comfort Inn!!! Despite the change of plans, we still had a great time! The kids were good sports about not riding The Polar Express Train. I think the snow made up for it!
Since we did not have anything else to do, we headed outside and had some FUN in the snow!!!!!
(Bare with me, I have TONS of pictures)
Can you tell there was some snowball fights going on?
Grace Anne, Alexander and Drew
Tami and Alexander
Me and my girl having some fun
SNOWBALL FIGHT!!!!
Family picture in the snow
Grace Anne, Allen, Tami and Alexander building a snowman!
and here is the snowman!!!!
After we all came in and got warm and dry, Daniel and Alexander walked to get us dinner. After making several stops at places that were CLOSED they found a steak house that was open and bought us dinner!
After dinner it was time for the Dulaney/Clabo Christmas! The kids were ready for PRESENTS!
It was a great time by everyone
but I think these two had the best time out of us all!:-)
Here are the kids showing off their presents from Alexander!
They LOVE him so much and look up to him, and I am so glad because he is a GREAT role model to look up to!
We are so blessed and thankful to have this sweet family in our life!!!!
Okay that is all of day 1 of the trip. I will post the rest tomorrow!!!
The kids and I are now heading to town and finishing up last minute Christmas shopping! PRAY FOR US! :-)
