I Heart Winter Wonderlands

This week over at I Heart Faces it's all about winter wonderlands.  Now up here in Boston there is well over two feet of snow on the ground, but recently I had the chance to experience a winter wonderland in a place that is not often associated winter.

I spent a week in Las Vegas visiting family friends and on one of my last days there we woke up to snow.  I was shocked, I never expected to see snow falling in Las Vegas.  There is something insanely beautiful about palm trees covered in white fluffy snow flakes.

It was a school day and my friends kids were mesmerized (and a bit bummed that school wasn't out for the snow!).  Before climbing in the car the kids had some fun outside in the snow.  They were hilarious and trying to "eat snow for breakfast."

Within an hour or so the snow had stopped falling and shortly there after it all melted, but it was a magical winter wonderland while it lasted, that is for sure!

Now I just wish I had managed to get a palm tree in the pic! But you can see the other snowy desert pictures if you click here.
