February 1st - Our first snow!

Zoë here -

Well, technically, it had snowed once before, but this was the first time we had the chance to actually touch it!
I take that back. Applejack touched it. I wasn't convinced it was something I wanted to do.
It was amazing to watch, and, watching from the window I thought I did want to play with it.


But then Mom opened the door to let me out and dang was it cold outside! I wasn't going out there, not me, nuh-uh, no sir!


But Applejack was braver than I was. First he checked it out, from the shelter of the doorway.


Then he walked right out onto the deck. I couldn't believe it! He was like "hey, Zoë, come on, check it out" and I was like "no way, I'm fine right where I am." So he just starts walking all around, kinda tip-toe-ing because it was so cold.


Then it was funny because he started coming back inside and was like "Whoa! What's this? Did someone else come out here with me?" He had seen some paw prints in the snow and started following them back inside.
Sheesh. I had to explain to him that they were actually his pawprints, duh!"
