Snow in Houston - 2008


At around 2-3pm I happened to look out the window and to my amazement I saw SNOW coming down from the sky!! I opened the door and the kids went running outside to see what was going on. We ran back inside to get dressed...Austin was giddy with excitement. By the time we got back outside it was coming down much thicker and faster. Austin had a BLAST playing! He kept trying to eat it by sticking his tongue out. Jake on the other hand didn't know what to think of the snow. He couldn't understand why Austin was so happy! lol By night time we had snow covered on our roofs, grass, cars. David went out and bought a Christmas tree and we had a nice family time putting that up with it snowing outside!

It's pretty rare that Houston gets snow (and I mean snow, not just sleet or flurries)...I think typically it's once or twice a decade. So far it has snowed with 2 out of 3 of my pregnancies. If you remember our White Christmas 2004 I was pregnant with Austin. I am convinced that snow is attracted to me being pregnant! ;)
