Snow in AZ???

I don't know that you could call it snow, but it did look like we had snow yesterday. It was stormy all night. When we woke up it wasn't raining anymore, but it was wet. David, Michael and Ryan were preparing to leave for the Nascar race and the rest of us were getting ready for church. Not 5 minutes after they left, it starts pouring! But not just rain. It is hailing! After a couple minutes the hail turned to slush. The kids were screaming 'Mom, you have to come see this!' I had sent the camera with David to the races, so all I had was my phone. I snapped a few pictures. We should have been leaving for church, but none of us wanted to go out in the storm. So we sat and watched, hoping it would let up. Sure enough, it did. We were just a tad bit late for church, but there were a lot of other people that, I think, had the same idea we did.
The trampoline looked like it had a blanket of snow on it.

Amanda and Tyler were trying to catch some in their hands.

The front yard had a blanket of white as well.

A friend at church told me her son wanted to stay home and make a snowman! When she said no, he asked if he could make one when they got home. It was funny. Of course, when we got home the sky was clear, no more rain and no more 'snow' on the ground.
