Winter Wonderland In North Texas



Snow on the trees in the backyard.
So we got snow again today.  The winter storm advisory took effect at 6:00 A.M. this morning until 6:00 P.M. tomorrow, Saturday night.  We had about 2 inches of snow here in our area.  Dallas and some parts of Northeast Texas had snow up to 4 inches deep. The temperature was between 26 to 29 degrees Fahrenheit all day.

We didn't have plans to go out this morning but my darling daughter asked for Chicken and Cheese Wraps for breakfast.  I don't have them in the refrigerator so we drove to the gas station close by to buy the food that she's wanting.

Since it's below freezing temperature, I decided to buy a stack of firewood. It sells $25 at the gas station.  Pretty high priced.  I built a fire at the fireplace as soon as we got home because we were shivering cold. :)  My husband came home from work at about 1:30 in the afternoon.

The ground is all white except the roads.

Yay! We Got Some Snow Today!

It snows in Texas today.  Winter in Texas is complete experienced snow again this year.  :)  It was 17F early this morning and I didn't know it was snowing until I opened the window from darling daughter's bedroom.  I was so excited and I told DD about it.  She wanted to go out right away.  But we waited for the snow to accumulate and get thicker so I can let her make a snow angel.  And she did.  DD was so happy to see and play in the snow.

I thought we won't get any snow this year because it's already late for the winter season.  But still there's possibility because it's not Spring yet.  I bundled DD with three layers of clothing.  The third clothing on her is the winter jacket, fleece pants, snow boots, and gloves.  I was very confident that she was comfortable and the winter clothes kept her warm.  The snow flakes and cold breeze on her face made her nose run though.  

But we had fun playing for a little while in the snow.  At least Mother Nature has given Texas some of her snow before the winter ends.
