A Wonderful Surprise
Dec 25th, 2010, 9:11am
 
My husband woke me very early this morning telling me there was something I had to see.... I stumbled from bed,got my glasses,and numbly followed him to the back door where when I looked out..... Shocked it was  like a Winter Wonderland! Snow was coming down steadily and the ground was covered! It was beautiful.... Now I know a lot of you are saying" why is She so excited ?//// That's crazy!!!!!",but we, here in Mississippi get very little snow and this is the first White Christmas we have had in 30 or 40 years... so yes, I am excited,and feel sorry that it won't last more than a few hours. I always think of it as just another way of God showing His beautiful handiwork,and blessings he gives us all whether we realize it or not.So I hope all of you today have a wonderful Christmas,and that He will bestow blessings upon you for all time. Cheesy

Betty, That`s wonderful you have a White Christmas, A present from heaven.  
I live about 260 miles from Chicago, so we get the Chicago Winters here, snow included.  
Love the snow, not too thrilled about the cold..lol.
 
Have a Wonderful Snowy Christmas!

Merry Christmas Betty!  A wonderful surprise for you!
 
We had a white Thanksgiving, very unusual for snow to hit our elevation that early, but only rain today...that's okay with us though since we have our Godson and his family traveling to our house today from a non-snow area.  Makes for safer travels Smiley
 
We'll just enjoy your White Christmas along with you!

It was beach weather here in the lower south of Western Australia. Not all parts of Australia were so lucky; following the drought  has come the floods.  Sad

I know exactly how you feel. It snowed here on the 25th also. I live in North Carolina. We got 8 inches. The snow is still on the ground. It really made it feel like Christmas. It is God's blessing. I think he is an artist like us, just better. What a beautiful gift. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Bettie. I wish you all the best in the new year ahead.  Smiley
