Christmas Eve Day

Christmas Eve day we did some last minute shopping and a little baking and some hanging out together. We also watched it do this:
SNOW!!!!! Kate was the first to venture out into this wintry mix and basked in it's coldness. :) She has no fear of weather. I opened the door to snap a couple pictures and that was it. The wind was blowing and blowing. By evening it almost looked like a blizzard! The snow was just blowing everywhere and it was so cold. I was glad we were staying home that evening. :)Megan loved it, too. We pulled out what winter gear we did have and they donned it well. Notice no gloves. Well, we remedied that a little while later at Target, but this is not something we are used to here in Texas! (We're supposed to get more tomorrow...what is going on here?) :)Carli wanted to follow her big sisters, but she realized that wasn't going to be so fun.Carli braved the cold for a few minutes, but Megan was having a ball.Then Carli decided she would rather watch the "fun" from here. Smart girl. ;)Her sisters continued their fun outside having a snow ball fight and making snow angels.Here is what we woke up to the next day. It was the first white Christmas around here since 1926!!!!! (at least according to a friend who posted that on Facebook)
