White Christmas!!

Holy cow! It actually happened!

It has snowed before Christmas before... but always it has melted away into gross, dirty remnants of mushy ice. "Greyish Christmas" doesn't have such a great ring to it...

But this year the snow stuck around... and the iced trees didn't melt... and it was ACTUALLY SNOWING on Christmas Day!!!!! It was a legit White Christmas!!! "Walking in a winter wonderland" is so much cooler when you actually SEE it :)

Yeah... unfortunately the city isn't the most photogenic place... this is the view outside the back door of my apartment building...

And here is the friends house where we had Christmas brunch... the view of their backyard.

Trust me, it was way cooler in person... here's a pic from Dec 23rd (post ice storm, at another Salvation Army where I helped give away Christmas toys):

And here's the office parking lot covered in snow:
