There are a lot of things about West Texas that I don't understand or appreciate, but there is nothing in this world like a West Texas sunset. Nothing. When I go back to Dallas or visit Brad's parents in the mountains of New Mexico I think the trees are splendid and the mountains are magnificent, but I always miss the sky. That's something we have in abundance here...that and tumbleweeds.
This is what I see out my front door right now.
In case you can't tell, the snow is blowing sideways! I don't really miss this at all. It's not so bad when all you have to do is stay inside and drink coffee by the fire, but who has the time to do that? Today was Eli's field trip to see Santa and shop at the Dollar Tree. So we loaded up with out three big coats, two hats, one scarf, four gloves, two mittens, and travel coffee mug and set out to go with Eli's class to the mall. It's a great field trip...really, it is, but goodness was it cold and windy today! Now we are home and Phoebe is napping, Eli is reading books, and there is a fire in the fireplace. It's not so bad now. :)
