Snow?? In College Station?!?!?!

Yep, you heard it straight from the sorce. It actually snowed quite a bit yesterday!!! We woke up yesterday morning to about 1/4" on the ground (hey, it counts, right?!?!) and then all day long it sleeted and then started snowing again right around 3:00 (RIGHT when I went to pick up the boys from school- doesn't that figure?!)

By 5:00 or so, it was a regular blizzard, (at least for us!) and it didn't slow down for quite a while. It was SOO beautiful and the boys had a blast (so did Matt and I for that matter!!!) We were able to build SEVERAL snowmen and had a few snowball fights. It was already starting to melt when we woke up this morning, and was completely gone (except for the snowmen- but those had fallen over and were looking pretty sad) by 10:00 this morning. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!!!

Here are a few pictures of our snow experience. I have determined that I would LOVE to live somewhere where it snowed in the winter. Well, as long as I didn't have to drive in it- just the idea of that scares me!!! :-)

Enjoy!

Blayden playing out in it when it first started to snow (he kept saying "bubbles!" as the snow was coming down. Poor, confused kid!!)


Even Gunner enjoyed it- see his grin?!?


The house when it was really starting to come down good:


Jace's snowman (yes, he did a lot of it himself!)


Kelton (stupid thing wouldn't stay out of his face and he wouldn't be still long enough for me to fix it):


Daylon's big snow ball. Yep, he threw it. At Matt!


Jace's HUGE snowball. Matt had to take it across the street so he could get more snow. And then had to carry it BACK to our house. He said it must have weighed at least 80 pounds!!
