SNOW IN HOUSTON!!!!

NO....you are not reading that title wrong. Today Dec 4th, 2009 Houston TX had snow..and not just an hour of snow...but almost all day of snow coming out of the sky. We did not get above 40 degrees today and tonight it will it a low of 24..or maybe 27 degrees!!!! This is not even close to the winter weather we are used to. The lows we get ...maybe a few days...are high 30's...and that was the temp most of the day today. South of Houston got more snow then we did but the freezing temps were everywhere around Houston. I tried to get some pics of the snow but in our area we did not see much lasting on the ground. I should have had Glenne take more pic with his phone cause he saw a lot more on the side of town where his office is located.

Hailey all bundled up after school. (Aunt Jenn said she looked like she was dressed like she should have been in Philly...but on this particular day....Philly was about 30 degrees warmer then us).
Glenne's view of the snow from his office window
Snow outside our front door. I think the "little flake big snow, big flakes little snow" theory I grew up on....does nothing for when you are down south.
you can see some snow flakes!!!!
Our backyard....can you see the snow on the climber and the grass?
About an hour after these pics were taken it started to rain...maybe sleet, we were in the house..just heard it coming down. The snow was gone after though..the temperatures...stilll FREEZING!!!!

Hailey enjoyed the snow. She even put her tounge out to catch snowflakes without me even telling her to do that. I am amazed that she did that....Glenne says..yeah, that is normal. Who knows...she is awesome and loved the snow. Grant it...it was just a little. She DID NOT like getting into the cold carseat though and definitely told me about it. I told her. If we lived in Philly...she would have this temperature for MONTHS instead of a few days.
