Snow Day!!

Well, we Vegas-dwellers got quite the surprise on December 17th this year: SNOW in VEGAS!! And not just a dusting, there was about 4 inches on the strip and in my own backyard!
I was in the office working and looked out the window and saw that it had started to stick a little. Thinking it would probably melt soon, I took a quick picture and then kept working.

A few hours later, I happened to look out the window and my jaw dropped!! It was STILL snowing!! This was crazy! so I took another picture.

I kept working and the temperature felt like it kept dropping. After another hour or so I looked out the window again to find a curious and astonishing winter wonderland!!

By the time Bill came home from work, the tree outside our house was almost broken in half because of the weight of all the snow! So we took the opportunity to trim it a little while we could reach the top ;]





Vegas hadn't seen snow like this since the 30's!! It's COLD!
