SNOW DAY!!!!....Almost



Wow! How beautiful this morning. All of the Thornton kiddos went to bed with dreams of waking up to a beautiful white blanket of snow this morning. More importantly, they dreamt of a snow day...yeah! God answered their little prayers and we woke up to a wonderful sight of fresh white snow all over the ground. We were all VERY disappointed to find that GISD was IN FACT having school today. (I was a little excited) After everyone got ready for school I let them get bundled up and go play for a few minutes in the snow. Note: in the picture, Chloe got Mattie ready, not me! Elyza, Chloe and Mattie got out in the front yard and threw a few snowballs and writing in the snow that had settled on the cars. What fun! Well, as you can see below, a mere 3 hours after the above pictures were taken, the kids went to school for good reason. There is hardly a trace of snow anywhere! TEXAS! I am glad that I was a good mom and let them play in the snow before school! (Pat, pat on my back :) ) Anyway, it was fun while it lasted! Just wanted you all to see our "Snow Miracle" ,according to Chloe! Enjoy the pictures!

YES! this was a Texas miracle! Your kids are so grown up! I can't believe Mattie is 3 now. It is just not possible is it? It means that I am getting old, I guess. Miss you guys!!
