Snow in Houston!

I still can't believe that is happened! Snow came to Houston, Texas last night. I left work when the temperature outside was in the low 30s but with the wind it felt like the 20s. As I started making my way home, I started noticing that there were little white things falling out of the sky. I didn't think much of it until my mom called an hour later and told me to go look outside. I walked out on to my balcony and to my surprise, there was little bits of snow falling. I couldn't believe it. Once Andrew picked me up from his LONG day at school, we decided to take a drive around the neighborhood before heading over to my parent's house. We ended up in Randles (grocery store) parking lot. There were many cars covered in snow so we took the chance to go out and enjoy. Also, a great time for a photo op! After freezing to death, we decide to head to my parents. Andrew ended up making a snowman with my brother Eric in the front yard. They probably spent an hour making him. I think he turned out pretty good. We also made a trip over to the park across the street to run through the snow. As the night went on, it snowing even more. I would say that we probably had a couple of inches by the end of the night. It was so pretty seeing everything covered in white! We ended the night drinking hot chocolate and thawing out our frozen bodies.

Check out my mom's blog for some more photos of the snow..... www.karenineverydaylife.blogspot.com
