Snow Dream

Nature· Newborn· Personal· Trees

15 Feb

Seems like the past 10 years or so, I’ve missed all the ‘big’ snow events that my parents/ brothers/ in-laws– everyone kin to me– have witnessed as I was either in South GA at college or Clemson which would only get about 2 or 3 inches. I was even SO excited to move to East TN for 2.5 years thinking I would finally see some descent snow; however, that of course didn’t happen until the exact day we were moving back to SC (6 inches). FINALLY!!!– I was able to relax and enjoy some perfect snow, in Lexington of all places. lol. Enjoy these beautiful pictures. I had soo much fun playing 🙂

I must say I’m extremely proud of this one! My hubs and I had so much fun building a snowman. The snow was PERFECT for it, and didn’t get all grassy and dirty either.


Oh how I love birds. And trees. And just nature in general. God is so gracious!

This is my grandparents farm house. They just moved out of it about 6 months ago to a more updated modular home. Chopping and hauling wood and fighting with the squirrels finally became too much for them. My Granny deserved a shower too! (only a tub in the ole house) lol.

I KNEW this would be an awsome picture when I mashed the button. The snow fell from the tree right when I snapped it. Amazing.

Of course, I have many pictures of my son and doggie daughter! This one I particularly love for some reason. Probably because it has a tree in it! lol

And oh, the many pictures I took of this sweet little boy! He is 7 months old and hopefully from these pictures he will remember his first extended day in the snow. (We stopped in Johnson City, TN and snapped some pics in the snow, but never was he able to play!)

The two handsome men in my life!

I was so glad to capture a good picture of Satilla in the picture with little man! She was standing in the perfect position 🙂

Play time with Daddy! “I sure do love his shiny sunglasses”

Awww. Boots! (I heart cowboys!)

    Plus, the pic with Satilla & the tree would be PERFECT for your tree design we've been looking for!

I love experiencing ‘firsts’ with my child; always have. And that doesn’t stop when they are teenagers. 🥰 February 21, 2026 was Gus’ first reenactment- the Battle of Aiken! You can tell by the black powder on his face, too, as that is the initiation. 😁

He planned for this day for a year. One of his buddies briefly mentioned after the 2025 one that they should look into being involved. Well, that conversation sparked a drive in this boy! Although the friend didn’t go onto being involved, Gus knew he would! So he saved up some money and purchased his gear. 

At the last minute, the unit he was originally registered with backed out of attending due to potential bad weather. So that left us scrambling. We told him not to worry and to just pack the vehicle with all his gear and we would just drive on to Aiken and figure it out when we get there. 😅 And by divine intervention, I’m sure of it, he ended up with the most wonderful unit of reenactors that he will continue with now, for years to come. 🙌🙏 

PS: he had his heart set on representing the South, but his unit was drafted to portray Union federalists at the last minute. 🤪

A couple weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to be able to get away for a couple days with my grandma, mama, and two of my aunts! Such a blessing!!! 💜 We perused the beach for shells and at night played the game ‘Taco, Goat, Cat, Cheese, Pizza’ (there were only two games provided in the house 🤣); all of us came away with some type of bruise. 🤣 We also had the Stone family famous shrimp ‘n grits for breakfast one morning! This trip was such a treasure!

These fellas had a heckuva start to their fishing tournament season this past Saturday. 😅 First, their typical boat captain was under the weather, so had to play switch-a-roo on boat *and* captain. Then, about 11am during the tournament the boat they were in broke down, leaving them only the section of the lake they could access with the trolling motor. Thankfully, a fellow team boat captain (and our church pastor!) was able to return his anglers to weigh-in, then make the run across the lake to snatch up these two fellas and get them to the dock in time for weigh-in. SHEW Y’ALL! 😅😵‍💫 They still managed 4 of the 5 fish limit with 10.04 lbs. 🙌
