Snow 2009

Here you go! From the land of sand comes the pics of snow... lol

(Sunday around 6 ish)


(30 minutes later....)



(9 ish....huge flakes really coming down...)



About 30 minutes after I took the picture above our power went out..... :(
(the next morning......so pretty but we were VERY cold)
(Look at the snow on the diving board. By our crude measuring we came up with nearly 10 inches.)

Pretty...but look closer.....

(Just outside the front door. Our neighbor's tree uprooted and fell into our yard.)


(Top of a cypress just cracked and fell onto the edge of the shed causing a slight dent.)


Around 1 a.m. Monday morning both Mom and I woke up just shortly before hearing a CRRRRACK then a THUMP.....this is what I found.


Turns out there were two large pine trees down. Thankfully neither tree hit the fence or anything else for that matter.



I like the snow. It is quite beautiful but I hate being cold and without power. Mom and the boys were troopers through it all. More pics on some of the fun we had later.
