It’s beginning to look a lot like…Spring???

This past week we noticed the neighbors’ trees starting to grow leaves and bloom flowers. The grass in our backyard by the door is starting to wake up and turn green too. Wonderful. Spring is here!

But, Texas weather is really exciting. One day it’s 70 degrees and sunny. The next day, while listening to the radio, you hear “csssssh… beeeeeeep! This is an emergency alert…” and an hour later you’ve got two Christmas ferns in your front yard! On average, Benbrook gets less than an inch of snow each year.

Here are some pictures and a video (below the slidesnow- I mean show)from our street. Don’t forget to look at General Wintermix, a snowman who showed up in our backyard today. Did I just say that? What, “our backyard” or “snowman?” Both!

Thanksgiving Snow Video

It snowed here on Thanksgiving this year. I put together a little video to show the family and friends back in San Diego what snow looks like. I had to ask Sudi, who has lived in Minnesnowta, if it was snowing because I wasn’t entirely sure what snow falling from the sky looked like. The Fort Worth area is only supposed to get one inch of snow per year. I think that might have been it.
