Desert Snow!

Maybe you heard...it was probably in the news...it snowed here a week before Christmas! It was very exciting. I was at home with Cole, Alora was sleeping. "Look, Cole! Snow." We watched it fall for awhile, then Cole got bored. I couldn't stop watching...I thought how unlikely it was to have a white Christmas in Las Vegas, but here it was! It was beautiful. I had seen it snow here a couple times before, but the snow had always melted as it hit the ground or soon afterward. This snow lasted at least four days. There was about five inches on the car. It weighed down the branches of the tree in the front yard so much so that they touched the driveway! Heath and I threw snowballs at each other as I tried to make the second snow man ever in my life! I would have been nice if Cole could enjoy it the way we did, but maybe in a couple more years when he'll willingly agree to wear gloves!
