It's fair to say that this winter has been a winter to remember here in the U.S. With record snow plummeting the northeast this season, children and adults have been confined to their homes for days at a time. Here in the south, the entire city shuts down with as little as an inch or two of snow! Today was a snow day here in the Carolinas. An ice storm hit along with about an inch of snow and schools and companies have either been delayed or shut down for the day. Oh what to do with myself.....
Having a snow day here in the south is something we look forward to, something we actually pray for to be honest! However, I couldn't imagine being cooped up in the house for days or weeks at a time. That is unheard of for someone like me born and raised in the south. My heart goes out to those in the northeast who have been at war with mother nature this season....
~ SNOW BEAUTIES ~
Looking on the bright side of things, snow can be a beautiful thing. If you find yourself snowed in this season, below are a few ideas of things to do while snowed in!
1. Read a good book
Nothing like cozying up on the couch with a warm blanket and your favorite book on a snow day. When I'm snowed in, this is my time to get some much needed reading in....

2. Watch your favorite movie
I love a good "chic flick" and I usually watch them back to back when I am cooped up in the house. I enjoy having my very own "chic flick" marathon!
3. Play outside in the snow
Go ahead and be free and let the inner kid in you come out! Be creative and build a snow man, make snow angels or throw snow balls. At least you are being active....

4. Enjoy a cup of hot chocolate
I love warm drinks, especially when its super cold outside or snowing....
5. Regroup and Game Plan!
With normal day to day tasks, sometimes its hard to find time to sit down and actually take time to think things through and game plan...Make goals and write out everything that needs to be done. When you are snowed in, you have all the time in the world to get things in order and prioritize.

6. Do chores around the house
I don't know about you but there is always work that needs to be done around the house. Again, with working full time, blogging part time, being a wife and mother - sometimes its hard to juggle it all and find time to get everything done. A snow day is the perfect time for me to get some much needed chores around the house done. A snow day = a clean house for me!
7. Blog!
For all of you bloggers out there, no explanation needed on this one. Just take time and do what you love - Blog!
8. Rest
Last but not least, take time for yourself and REST. Especially if you are always on the go with work or school and the normal daily activities in your life. If you find yourself snowed in, just relax and rest. Your body will love you for it!
