January 9th is my birthday. Capricorns unite! Hehe.

I turned 25 this year. I'm very blessed and I thank HIM for 25 years of life and look forward to many more, especially with Rex and the new adventures we'll experience.

This year January 9th was also the first snowfall of 2012 for the DC metro area. The storm was not very well forecasted, due to a disagreement in the computer models and many saying that there wasn't enough cold air or moisture present for snow. When the snow did start to fall, the non-accumulating thoughts turned into an accumulation of up to 2" in some areas.  In Adelphi/Tacoma Park, we received about 0.5".  It was pretty coming down and the snow nicely covered the grass. It covered the cars slightly as well. The streets were slick in some areas, however.

Rex took me out for my birthday that night and we went to Longhorn Steak house.  We went out with a few friends as well. It was a wonderful birthday and a nice treat with the little bit of snow. It was nothing compared to the Blizzard of '96. Remember that? It's been a pretty snow-less winter so far in many parts of the United States.

Here are a few pictures from yesterday:





 

Thank you so much for braving the weather baby for a wonderful birthday celebration. You mean so much to me and thank you to everyone else who made it out. It means a lot. Gotta love having a winter b-day ;-)
