Snow can look very pretty and change what a landscape looks like completely. When it snows in an area that rarely gets snow I think it is a bit extra special. I like to take photos of the white covered streets and the trees covered with a white blanket. Roof tops can look charming too. It is fun to see children building snowmen and throwing snow balls. Where I used to live it did snow some winters but where I live now it is unlikely to snow as much. I remember when my dog, Secret, was a puppy skipping around in snow for the first time. He looked so cute dipping his paws in it and thinking oh that is cold!

Oh I miss snow so much. We lived in Virginia when I was a kid and I adored it. It was part of the Christmas excitement and I'd spend hours going up and down the hill with my sled. It's just so beautiful too. Now that I live in the city of Cardiff, we never get any. There's been a light dusting a couple of times in the past few years, but it melted as soon as it hit the ground. I'm going to have to save up for a Christmas holiday in Canada or something!
