Thursday morning, it started to sleet. Then, by around noon, it started to snow. Over the next 24 hours, it would lay down 5 inches of snow in Italy, and twice that much in the DFW metroplex.

When the kids got home on Thursday, we had to go out and start to make a snow man. It was the most snow that any of my family had ever seen.

Friday morning I woke up, and realized that overnight we had gotten another 3". I tried to work, but the kids kept calling me and wanting me to go out and play. Together we made 3 snowmen, and started to build a fort.

Another fun thing we did Friday morning was drive around and take pictures of the Italy for the Neotribune. We took pictures for two stories:
