But all my set in stone feelings melted as quickly as a tiny bit of ice that lands on your palm when this unexpectedly arrived last night. As each snowflake fell I felt Christmas magic start to flow through my veins. As we drove through the winter scene on the way to Trey's basketball practice I though of the old classic song Silver Bells and the phrase, " Strings of street lights, Even stop lights, Blink a bright red and green." I put on the Chipmunk Christmas Song and we sang along. I finally let the idea of Christmas sink and knew I ready for it to arrive. 
When we got home the boys and girls laughed, chased and fell in the snow. A winter wonderland. I think the song from The Grinch Who Stole Christmas sums it up best. Fah who for-aze! Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze! Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Christmas, Welcome Christmas,
Come this way! Come this way!
Fah who for-aze! Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze! Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Christmas, Welcome Christmas,
Christmas Day. Christmas Day.

We got a few flurries, but no accumulation. Lucky you! I say if it's going to be cold, it might as well be pretty with a few snow flakes...
Yeah for the first snow. Definitely a reason to break out the chipmunk music.
We REALLY need some snow here! Hopefully it's after we get the lights up, though. :-0
