Crazy Texas Weather

 In the midst of this freezing thunderstorm, I bring to you a month ago... when it SNOWED.... IN TEXAS. 

We were having brunch with the Devlins when it started to rain. Then, we all noticed. That wasn't rain. Those were flurries!! It had been a pretty cold week, so to our surprise, the flurries quickly started to stick. So, in our pure Texas fashion, we grabbed a quick jacket and some boots and ran outside. The kids were freezing, but no time to bundle up because who knows how long this was going to last, right?!

The flurries slowed down and we came inside. "Well, that was fun." No disappointment here. Snow - in any form - is awesome in Texas. So, the kids went for rest all happy to have "payed in the snow Mama!"

Little did they know, the snow just kept falling! We haven't seen snow like this since Miles was tiny. It was amazing. So pretty.

Stephen and I were itching. I think this is the first time we've ever wished the boys to be awake quicker. Usually we relish in our naptime. But today.... TODAY IT'S SNOWING. We did the proper bundle this time and headed out to play.

Carson was a little unsure at first.

Snowball fight!!

It didn't take long for Carson to figure things out and for the rest of the day, so long as he had a snowball, he was a happy camper

Love.

And here we sit, Feb 12th, 30 degrees with ice covered trees and snow in the forecast. Yall up for round 2?!
