It's A Winter Wonderland in Dallas!

They had been predicting snow all week for today, but everyone was surprised to see how much we have gotten....and they say by morning we will probably have about 10 inches. It has been BEAUTIFUL! Huge snowflakes falling all day long.

I went into work for a little bit, but was anxious to get home so we could play outside. It snowed Christmas Eve, but we didn't get out in it and I was hoping we might get another chance this winter.

I ran by Target to get a few things for Madden. We don't keep much of a 'winter wardrobe' in the closet in Texas....especially since he is growing so fast, but I managed to find rain boots and a rain jacket. We just layered up and out we went.

....after all my hard work in finding proper attire....and dreams of building snowman and rolling around in the snow, my little snowman screamed....and tears rolled down his face. He did NOT like it! Maybe we'll try again tomorrow...but he just isn't sure about it.

These pics are a little out of order.....but here is a glimpse of our afternoon.....

Helping Daddy work.....tomorrow should be interesting.....Madden and I are staying home and Marc works from home......not sure how much work will get done!

A view of our street.....

Our house.....the lawn has never looked so good! Ha! If only we had a blanket of snow on it all year round, then we wouldn't have to worry so much about the dying grass.....

Opps! I forgot to cover my plants! Think my pansies will make it?!
