So just as I was going to bed last night I was turning off the lights and locking up I looked outside to check the temperature and lo and behold it was snowing.....we got an inch in just a half an hour....so of course I watched for awhile cause I love to watch it snow....finally I went to bed with over two inches on the ground.....usually when it snows in Meadview it melts pretty quick but this morning it was still there....beautiful!
Now here is someting interesting these animal footprints were by my back door then when back up the hill... it is an animal paw about three to four inches....what I suspect it was probably our bobcat that we see once in awhile coming thru the yard...fun!
Believe it or not it is really pretty in the desert when it snows....the down side is you sure wouldn't want to go sleding here lol!
So this is our big adventure for the day....Kathy was driving a bus load for work and couldn't get through had to turn around and go back to Vegas...roads icy....buses slid off the road...roads closed for pretty much the day....ah yes a day of snow in the desert.....good is doesn't happen often!
So here is the story.....I had a paper route and Santa was one of the carriers that I used to see every night....during the holidays he would come in every night dressed like Santa....I told him we could use him on Christmas Eve because all my family was coming for Christmas.....Well much to my surprise he drove up in his RED PICKUP the kids were all in the family room and Holly saw him and just squeeled over and over again "It's Santa"....the kids were so excited they asked him many questions, gave him cookies and milk, tugged at his beard (which was real) told him what gifts they wanted and of course gave him lots of hugs......At Christmas time it is so fun to reflect on times past and remember the special times in our lives....this was for sure one of many special times......there is nothing like a child really believing in Santa....Christmas after all is about loving and giving and being happy......It is wonderful when shared with those you love and remembering the one whose Love this is all about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.....Merry Christmas family may his atoning Love be with you today and through the coming year....Love to you all!
