PERFECT.........

The weatherman predicted it and they were right for once!!! Snow on Christmas Day and it was perfect!  

Just about the time the paper was removed from all of the packages and breakfast was complete, a pouring rain turned into a beautiful snowfall. It was our version of a "Winter Wonderland".

If you are a Texan you know this is a very rare occurrence.  For kids all over the area it was like Santa answered a prayer.....all of the toys are great but snow on Christmas...well Norman Rockwell could not have painted a more perfect scene.

It was peaceful.  It was cleansing, and if you could get through the day without a smile on your face, well, you just might want to join the Grinch in Whoville!

We set the camera on the tripod, took the mandatory snowfall on Christmas Day 2012 pictures and then retreated inside to warm up.

After three days of too much fun, and not enough sleep...... a great snowfall, icy streets and cold weather was the perfect excuse to settle in for a "long winters nap".
"God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"
I believe we will!!
Merry Christmas!
