What a nice gift for 2021: Texas snow. We haven’t seen snow since we moved in, so the kids were pretty excited. The puppy was not having it at first, then thought it was grand! She does like eating ice, and as Texas snow, what we have is really ice (very similar to snow cones). She really doesn’t mind being wet and muddy, and likes getting rubbed down with a towel. She is not a fan of getting her paws washed off, but if you dig in the mud, there will be washing.
Well a tiny bit of snow, but it is more than we’ve seen here since we moved in. I yelled like a kid out of school, woke my eldest so she could see actual flakes, had everyone in the house look outside, then let the teenager go back to bed. As a teenager, she was not impressed. I’ve had to modify her request (made at 10 years old) to be woken up to see snow. Honestly, it was a tiny dusting of snow, not impressive, but I do enjoy watching the snowflakes float through the air. We usually get freezing rain, which is only pretty on the tree branches when it is over, and makes driving a bear.
