Texas Snow Days

4 of them! We had a record number of snow days in a row. Monday night/early morning we started getting freezing rain and ice. I'm talking about 2 inches of ice. So Tuesday school was called. Well the temperature didn't get about about 24 degrees until Friday afternoon. The ice never had a chance to melt and we got about 4 inches of snow on Friday morning. We spent pretty much the entire week at The "Helms' Lodge". The kids played on the golf course. Because the snow started as ice, they were flying down the hills on their sleds. Then on Friday there was so much snow that they were able to make snowmen and have snowball fights. Not to mention the 4 days of eating and drinking that the parents did. It was so much fun! And we are looking forward to our ski trip in 2 weeks. 5 more days of snow, food, and friends!
