Let It Snow

Last week we got a bit of that white stuff falling from the sky here in England, something we seldom see back in Texas.  It fluttered down from above and looked as if the back garden greenery had been dusted in powdered sugar.

The few and far between flakes continued for about 20 minutes and then came to a halt.

Because it was late start day and the bus wasn't scheduled to pick up the girls until 8:40, their first hope thought was that maybe classes would be cancelled.  Wishful thinking, indeed, since we received maybe 1/4" of snow.  Nevertheless, it was a lovely way to start the day and served as a wonderful reminder of the beauty of the Christmas season.
