We're not in Texas anymore, that's for sure!!

Snow?  In late March?  A BLIZZARD?!!?!  "Thunder-snow?????"  (We think those silly KS weather guys just made that one up.  BUT, I must say....I DID hear thunder claps at one point during the blizzard....still, 
"thunder-snow?"  It all sounded a bit strange to us!)

Friday night (March 27th) was mostly an ice storm....see what happened to our trees in a pic below.  Then the snow came late that night and early in the day on Saturday.  It really was beautiful!!!  In the last pic, I was trying to capture how big the snowflakes were....never seen anything like it--flakes as big as quarters, at least!  It was amazing!  They predicted between 6 and 15 inches.  According to our ruler, we got between 7 and 8 inches in our part of town.

We had some fun family time making our snowman.  Well, actually, Emma mostly sat back and ate snow, & I was a bit limited in my bending over and rolling snow ability....so Brett actually did most of the hard work and I did the "decorating" afterwards.  Still, we all had fun outside together.  Then poor Brett got another work-out shoveling the sidewalk & driveway.  






Hoping warmer weather is coming real soon (& staying!!!)
