White Christmas, Winter Wonderland in the Deep Heart of Texas! December 2017 Miracle Snow!!
How amazing is this, it snowed in the Deep Heart of Texas!! Say What? Why yes, yes it did!
I have dreamed of a white Christmas since my birth in the southern parts of Texas. My dream has come true as of two days ago. I could hardly believe it! So much excitement and bewilderment came over me as I ran outside to watch the soft flurries elegantly fall from the sky sticking to the ground like never before. I thought my eyes were deceiving me or I was fast asleep dreaming of this. To be sure it wasn't a dream I had to run out in it to only feel the beautiful snowflakes land on my head and body feeling their crisp cold touch. "It is true, truly snowing right now!!" I thought with much excitement. I quickly ran inside to grab my camera to capture this once in a Texan's lifetime experience.
Here I am getting covered in snowfall for the first time in my life!! Made a five second snowman before it decided to leave in the middle of creating him lol
The streets of south Texas are getting hit with real snow that is soft, fluffy, & light. Its so beautiful to watch falling out of the sky.
Everything is getting covered with snow from tables to kids toys, and the ground! It starts out strong with a good layer that is actually sticking for once.
It quickly builds into a thick blanket all over everything in the first hour or so. Looks like something taken out of a White Christmas story book. I'm beginning to fall in love! More excitement, enjoyment, & happiness washes over me!!
Once I took it all in I decided to let my inner child come out to play! First thing I do is lay in it to make a snow angel for the first time in my life. All of the dreams and wishes for a snow day just so I can make an angel :) The cold snow touching bare skin doesn't even phase me as I lay in the soft crisp blanket. Soft little flurries fall on my face making the experience even better!
As the Snow Fall Adventures come to an end I am overflowing with so many mixed emotions from excitement & enjoyment to bewilderment & disbelief by this Miracle Snow!! Praying for more real snow to land on these parts of Texas again this year. Hopefully us Texan's will be meeting you again Miracle Snow! Love from a girl in the Deep Heart of Texas.
Thank you for reading my first post on SteemIt! Upvote & I will return the same on a post from you, God bless!! :)
It’s great to see this in the south! I had family tell me it was snowing in Houston and I couldn’t believe it or remember how long it’s been since the last time.
I was shocked and so stoked that an actual blanket was formed! It was about an inch or more in my yard. The only time I'm aware of anything like this was when my oldest brother was under a year with over a foot. He's over 30 now. Anytime I experienced any type of snowfall here it was more icy and a thin layer of ice on the grounds. It was so beautiful & amazing to see!!
