This year for Christmas we experienced a “first”! Experiencing a “first” can only happen once, hence the name “first”, so needless to say, we were quite excited! As Christmas Eve drew near, chatter began about the possibility of snow for Christmas. Now, seeing as we live in Texas, the idea of snow at all is quite amusing! The idea of snow for Christmas is one that hasn’t been considered for some 25 years here according to area history. But, sure enough, this year north Texas experienced her first “White Christmas” this decade! The exciting news for our family is that we were blessed to experience our first “White Christmas” as well! A blizzard kicked into full gear on Christmas Eve, leaving behind an absolutely beautiful white landscape. Homes and streets alike were blanketed with the wonderful winter white. The kids were able to experience the feeling of fresh snow under their feet and the sweet sound of the snow crunch! Following our traditional gift time and family breakfast we were able to build our first real snowman! I guess then we were blessed to experience more than just one “first” this Christmas!
