It does snow in Texas

I know! Can you believe it? It snowed. Well......it snowed for Austin.

I'll admit that it snowed last year and it fell a lot harder and stayed for a lot longer. I'll also admit that I didn't get any pictures of it so you'll just have to settle with the great snow of February 2011.

Our cars. For some reason Jay thought he was driving into work that day. Texans do many things well like BBQ, country dancing and we also do 100 degree days VERY well; one thing we don't do very well is driving in the rain and the snow/ice. Hence our cars didn't leave the driveway.

I think Dexter was in heaven. He finally blended in.

Has anybody seen my dog?

He loved digging around in the snow.

And then Dexter ran around the house a few times.

But he always watches out for his family like a good German Sheppard dog should do.

And yes, even though it snowed in Austin it was 60 the next day and I wore a short sleeve shirt outside. So the moral of the story is that it never snows in Austin that long.
Also, we didn't take Jack outside for some snow becuase he's been fighting a fever and a terrible cough so we didn't want to risk it.
