A Silly Snowy Day

Yes, it does snow in Texas. However, it doesn't happen often enough for any of the local governments to invest in any kind of infrastructure that deals with inclement weather. As such, when it ices, snows, or sleets any amount, the whole DFW area basically shuts down because the roads get bad and there is no way to fix them. So yesterday we had a "snow day" and Daddy got the day off. But as you can see in the pictures, the amount of snow that stuck is kind of pathetic and would cause anyone from the northeast or midwest to roll on the floor and laugh. We don't care. We didn't have to work.

Even though there weren't moutains of snow, it was still enough for Veronica to get excited about seeing patches of white on the ground. So we decided to get some use out of the snowsuit D.J. got for his Baptism and go for a family walk.

All dressed up


I can't move in this thing!

Even Maggie dressed for the occasion:

We had so much fun watching Maggie run after snowballs.

It's still below freezing today, but the roads are clear and Daddy is back at work. Hey, I know it's not "real" snow to many of you, but I'll take what I can get.
