2011 has started off as the coldest winter that I remember. We have had snow 3 times--from 4-7 inches each time. That is unheard of in Texas!!! We had very cold temps---once it stayed below freezing for 5 straight days (15-28 mostly) Schools closed for 6 days and we didn't even get mail for 2 days. I thought they were supposed to come through sleet, snow, hail, or whatever.

Beautiful to look out one day and see this but enough is enough!!!

The colors in my bottle tree really stand out in the snow.
