Day Number 13

 We woke up this morning to a "winter wonderland". Well, what is commonly known in Texas as a "winter wonderland". Someone who lives in a state where  large fluffy snowflakes in mass amounts are common would call it a dusting. People laugh at me because I see occasional large fluffy flakes falling and I get all excited over the "Yankee flakes". Its easier to say than "large fluffy flakes like the ones that fall up north.".  It's sad to say that when we went to bed last night, around midnight, it was 50 degrees. The cool front came in around 4:15 this morning. The spectacular sounds of crashing thunder woke me to announce it's arrival.
  So when we woke this morning to a beautiful white spread covering the grass, of course we were excited. Although, the children were very disappointed with  the solid state of this beautiful white covering. Instead of bundling up and building snowmen like we had wanted to we bundled up and "skated" and played hockey with  small blocks of ice along the iced over sidewalks. We had a lot of fun! So needless to say today's pictures are multiple!


  I wish this one were not so blurry. I love it anyway!


I had some of my son also, but they all came out blurry. I blame the broken camera lens that I am soon replacing.
 Thanks for looking!!!
