A Christmas Miracle - Dec 25th Snow in Houston

Not really. It's just precipitation. Still, if it starts to flurry, I bet Dakota will think its pretty cool.

When I was in 1st grade we had a White Christmas is New York. This was the real thing. The day before was green and brown, the next day was 1 inch of hard packed ice followed by three inches of heavy wet soft powder. Perfect for the sled hill next to our house in the school yard. The snow plows came and piled all of the snow up to the bike rack. Then Blamo! Fast hill with ski jump at the bottom... snow forts and snow ball fights: Snow men, snow angels, don't each yellow snow... whole nine yards.

It was awesome.
