Snow Storm Part Two

All of Dallas looked liked a winter wonderland Friday morning, February 12th. All of the schools closed which means my office did too. However, Brent had to go in but he left the house close to 10am and then his office closed at 3:30. (Not sure why his office didn't close considering the phones didn't work.) From what I've heard, Plano received close to 10 inches of snow which has never happened so this storm will go down in history. The last big snow storm for Plano was in 1978.

After Brent left the house, Beck and I decided to venture out and play in the snow. Beck tried to walk in it but it was way too deep for him! He immediately fell down then struggled to get up.

The snow that accumulated on the trees was extremely heavy and most of our neighbors lost a branch or two. As you can see, we lost a couple of branches from our crape myrtle tree.

This is Beck attempting to walk in the snow again and after going in the house, I quickly discovered that his shoes are not waterproof (his socks were soaking wet).

Our street...

This is Beck running from me in the street...(notice the broken branches)...

The snow is melting so there's a lot of water gushing down the side of the street and Beck had fun stomping in it.

This is the back of our house...

Snow on the tree....so pretty!

Brent is now building snowman #3 since snowman #1 and #2 fell down. Beck is pulling as hard as he can on the snowman's arm that Brent just added and it finally broke off.
