A Texas Winter Wonderland!

Friday, December 4, 2009:

After much anticipation and a lot of prayers from our boys, it snowed in Katy on Friday. It started snowing at our house right before we left our house for school (7AM). So I grabbed a towel and we headed out the door. Will and Louis wanted to drive with the sunroof open the whole way so that they could caught the small little flurries we saw. It was so much fun. The towel came in very handy to clean up the car!

Once we arrived at school Will and I ate our donuts in the fountain area just like every Friday morning before chapel, but to much surprise we found out we were leaving school early! How exciting was that!!!



We left school early and headed home. By this time(noon) our car was completely covered with snow and ice. Will thought this was awesome! On the way home it was pouring snow...literally. We played all afternoon and made two snowmen in one our of community fields (AKA...Charlie's walking path).



We had so much fun playing, making snowballs, snowmen, snowangles and even eating a little bit of it! :-) We hope you enjoy these pictures of our winter wonderland day in Katy!

The book fair was this week! We started the week off with character day and ended the week with Dads and donuts! So fun! We also put up our Christmas tree (more pics to come) and started our elf on the shelf tradition again. The boys are having just as much fun this year with "Elfy" than they did last year! :-) Here are a few pictures!

We spent most of the week of Thanksgiving in Lake Charles. We left Tuesday morning and returned home Sunday! We had so much turkey! Thomas and his dad fried them, and my family baked them. Delicious! We had a great visit and spent two nights with the Browns and two nights with my family. It was so nice having everyone together again! My brother and Miss Leanne even got a chance to come down to visit. We are so thankful for such great friends and supportive family!
