Our Winter Wonderland

Well, we had a record snowfall in DFW on Thurs/Friday, getting 12.7 inches of snow in 24 hours!  It was amazing and SOOOooo pretty.

The kids’ main focus was to EAT the snow.

We went out a few times to play in it, but we didn’t really last long.  We don’t have snow suits or gloves that don’t get WET and cold, so it was kind of miserable!  But, both of their classes played in it on Thursday and built big snowmen.

Friday school/work was canceled, and in the morning our power went out about 8 am, so we packed up even earlier than planned to head to Nonnie & Poppy’s house, and then on to Lubbock.

Yep, we had to leave all the pretty snow behind and drive out west.

More on that trip next!

Our power was out for all of Friday at at least some of Saturday, but luckily we weren’t there.

When we got back, almost all the snow was gone.  I was hoping there would be some left to play in!  Maybe we’ll get another big snow??  Here’s hoping!  :)
