As early as Monday the weathermen were telling us that we had a good chance of snow on Friday. Yea right! I said. It was too hard to believe! But, lo and behold Friday came around and we were treated to a wonderful early Christmas gift!! SNOW!!! It began early Friday morning and continued until late in the afternoon. It was Darin's Friday off so he got to be home to enjoy it with me. It was soooo beautiful!! Considering the freeze warnings for the entire day all the schools in Katy had early release. Some will think that is strange, but considering we NEVER get much snow or ice here people just don't know how to drive in it and we don't have the equipment to keep the roads clear of ice. Darin and I went outside to enjoy it and heard screaming and yelling coming from Amberly's Elementary School which is just a few blocks from our house. The teachers had let their classes go out to play in it. The sounds of laughter and joy were a highlight of the day for Darin and I. It was priceless!! What a great day we had!!
Eyn got just a little wet and was quite a bit cold!

Watch out Trent!! It was back and forth like this for quite a while!
Trent was quite cold here! Yes, short sleaves! I didn't understand that myself!

Beautiful White Snow!

What a wonderful gift the snow was! We hope it makes some more surprise visits this wintertime!!
