It "snowed" today.
The grandkids called Grandpa to tell him they
were outdoors playing in the snow. This is a rare thing in
our part of Texas. Houston doesn 't get a lot of "snow."
Having been raised in Michigan, I wish my grandkids
could see what snow was REALLY all about. In the meantime,
they enjoyed the twenty minutes or so that it
came from the sky. I had a little on my car that melted
on the way home from Wal-Mart. It sure was
fun while it lasted. I doubt the schools will be closed tomorrow.
These pictures were a great opportunity to use the Arcticlicious kit
from Delicious Scraps. I am a big fan of pastel colors.
