Christmas Eve Blizzard

 

Yesterday, Tulsa had its first blizzard warning ever.  The snow fell and fell, and the wind howled.  It truly brought an element of magic to our Christmas Eve.  It was beautiful, but caused many travel delays and accidents around the area.  My brother wasn’t able to make it to our Christmas Eve dinner last at Nanny’s, nor our gift opening this morning at my sister’s.  Oklahoma City got 14 inches of snow, and we got around 9 inches.  It was a snow storm that will go down in the record books, that is for sure.

Me any my hubby getting ready for Santa last night.. 

We sprinkled some oatmeal, so the reindeer could have a little snack.

The boys put out cookies and milk for Santa, and were tucked in early to await his arrival.

Hi Leslie! I'm in Oklahoma City too! I still can't believe all the snow and that it's still on the ground!! This is the longest I've ever seen it stay. It was definitely magical having a white Christmas. Love your blog and your fab ideas!
Blessings,
