Real Colorado Snow!

While in Colorado for my Grandma's funeral, we were able to stay in Grand Junction where my Aunt Nancy and Uncle Jim live. They have a beautiful home! Just check out the view from the porch. And, they happen to live on one of "those streets" for the Christmas lights. You know, the kind where tons of people drive by very slowly to check out all the homes & lights? That's the deal here.

It's actually a requirement that they have Christmas lights up & they will even come to your door if any section of lights have been out for more than five minutes (this happened while we were there!)

So in Dallas, we never have large amounts of snow. We may have some "snow" in the morning, but by noon, it's always melted away. To be in Colorado with tons of snow was such a treat for Holton. He even made a snow angel.

So bare with me as I include several snow pics since we may never see this again! Love this one. Notice my cousin Timmy isn't even wearing a coat to sweep in the snow. Us Texans were feeling pretty wimpy next to this tough guy. And finally, I'll leave you with some video of Holton playing in the snow.

Again, I must document this for Holton so he can look back and remember what real snow actually looks like!
