So much for global warming, it has snowed two years in a row in Pearland. Brooke thinks that this is normal. Brooke had school on Friday and we didn't think it was going to snow until the afternoon, but it started snowing right when I dropped her off at 9am. I felt so bad about leaving her at school. I went to Kroger and stocked up on all kinds of comfort food, like we were going to be snowed in for days. I got stuff to make chili, gumbo, cobbler, brownies, hot chocolate, you name it. Our nanny, Bonnie, thought she was at someone elses house! It was so fun to be bad! My friend Kim picked up her daughter and Brooke early from school to play in the snow. I went to get her after lunch and we played outside and tried to sled down the hills of the golf course in a cardboard box.
The next morning, the whole golf course was iced over and we went sledding using a Rubbermaid plastic lid. My legs are bruised up from sliding on my belly, but it was so fun!
It's snowing in our backyard!
More snow!

Our make-shift sled.
Cheese!
Brooke and our nanny, Bonnie, before school on Friday. Brooke is holding her elf named Patrick. He shows up each morning in a new spot after going to report to Santa each night on Brooke's behavior. It is fun to see Brooke's face light up when she finds him each morning.
We even got the babies out in the snow. Paige is in her pink hat, Reagan is in red and Kara is in purple. My running friend, Valerie's mom, made the girls hats!
We are in front of our house (check out Brooke's pose).
The whole Elmore family
Saturday morning. The golf course was full of ice and we were ready to sled (still in our pjs).
Brooke loved sledding!
A little push from Daddy to get started.
Sledding on your belly was the way to go, it was so fun!
Troy had a great time too.
Wheeeee!
It was a beautiful view, that we will surely miss when we move.
