SNOW!!!

I know that it is supposed to be "Wordless Wednesday", but really, today just needed some words! SNOW...IN DALLAS...IN DECEMBER!!! Here is how it unfolded here at the Smith House.

Last night it was raining and 45...no chance for SNOW in the forcast. So Woody was heading out to the car this morning at 6:45 am and found this:

On the Car...
On the playset...
On Alice:)
On Kate:)
Not much, but it was coming down and the kids were excited!

An hour later, this is what it looked like:

Ella had just come down and I said, "Ella, look outside. " "Mommy, what is it?" "You know what that is!" "SNOW!" She could hardly believe it either. "Mommy, it is so beautiful and soft and fluffy!"

Aubrey says, "Oh, snow! I think I will love the snow and sledding and snowmen!"
"Wait a minute...you mean I gotta wear this big ol' sweatshirt and slippers all day! And when we go outside, I gotta wear a hat and mittens! I DON'T LIKE THE SNOW!"
It sure does help get us in the mood for Christmas though. By lunch now the snow has turned back into rain and is all melted, but it was a Winter Wonderland here in Dallas this morning:)

  1. Never thought Texas would get snow before Wisconsin gets snow this year!! :) I wish we would get a dusting... Ella is right, a light dusting is beautiful and puts you in the mood for Christmas!

  3. Too funny that the day after I tease you Texans about winter, you show me up with a pile of snow! I stand corrected. : ) Not to be outdone, MN is it's own winter wonderland this morning. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
