A REAL TX White Christmas


So, north TX & Dallas do get ice and snow occasionally during winter but hardly ever ON CHRISTMAS!! Christmas Eve it starting snowing in early afternoon and kept going for about 9 hours! It really picked up in the evening and starting coming down blizzard style - no lie. We live next to a vast, open field of nothingness so the wind was really blowing hard against our house. We actually had snow drifts in the yard.

It was AMAZING to have a real white Christmas. It stuck around for Christmas day too and since our house is positioned out of direct sun we got to "keep" our snow for many days . . . it took 5 days for all the snow (and our snowman) to melt completely.
