Snow Days

Two weeks ago, Dallas/Fort Worth got the most snow
it's every gotten in one day.
12.5 inches.

For you Northerners, that's nothin', but for us - it'll stop the world!

David didn't feel comfortable driving a truck on the ice and Ethan's daycare was closed due to a power outage so we both decided to stay home with our little man and enjoy the day.

Here are some pictures I took of our record snowfall.

The sidewalk through the garden where I work. This picture was taken on Thursday morning, snow had been falling for 8 hours at this point.

Friday was when we peaked at 12.5 and the roads iced over.

This is the scene from just outside our patio on Friday.

Outside of the few years I lived in NW Arkansas (Whoo Pig!), this is the most snow I've ever seen.


Ethan enjoying his first BIG snow storm!


My men and their first snowman.
That's right, it was my husband's first snowman too.


We named him Gus and gave him blue gumdrops for eyes.


...and to think, more snow is forecasted for today!




Spring, come quickly!
