Holy Snowballs Batman, Its Snowing outside!

The kids and I are beyond happy! If only it will stick around for snow angels later when the kids get home from school!

It was very pretty. Unfortunately it left us with the same results as rain.  :-\

Sorry you missed the snow Peaches, I was just telling my kids it might snow Friday and my husband said It was snowing outside right then. Well like everyone else that sees snow once every few years I had to grab my camera.

I know snow is kind of fun for natives of Dallas.  I lived for several years in the upper midwest and had a lifetime of snow in a few years.  If I never see snow again, I will be a happy Texan.

I bet you laugh at us to when we anxiously tune in to the news wanting to know if our kids have school on days that the roads are iced over or there is snow on the ground. I use to live in Denver, Colorado and nothing shuts them down.

The last snowstorm I was caught in shut Denver down, and as much as I love snow, well, that sucked.

11 people, 800 sq ft house, 4 days with no electric, heat, or running water.  To top it off it was my in-laws.  I was soooo happy when the National guard could finally get in to rescue us.

I am never going to Grandma's house at Christmas again.

I am from Ohio and I have definitely seen my share of snow, but this was something crazy!  Jamie's grandparents lost all but 5 of their cattle, the snow was drifted so bad we honestly couldn't find the cars, and the downed power lines made us inaccessible.
