Merry Christmas!

And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord..."

Merry Christmas from snowy Texas! That's right, it was 71 degrees here on Wednesday, started snowing Christmas Eve and we had a white Christmas. The 3 inches recorded Thursday at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport was the first measurable Christmas Eve snowfall since the National Weather Service began keeping records in 1898. According to the Weather Service, it has snowed on Christmas Eve only a couple of times, but not enough to officially measure.

We enjoyed a warm and cozy fire on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning! This picture is from first thing Christmas morning.

On a Christmas walk by our house today

***I posted a copy of our Christmas card at the top of the blog, but we actually just got 12 free cards from Shutterfly. They went to parents, grandparents and mostly older family family members. We loved getting Christmas cards (thanks to everyone who sent one!) and will maybe pick back up sending them out next year.
