Snow = Fun
Today we went sledding in the park with friends. 
Cool tree stump built for two.
Till next time. Please think warm and cozy thoughts for us - as we are on the eve of another windstorm. Who knows what adventures this will bring. I'm hoping that the power does not go out for a week this time!

Dumping of Snow
After much anticipation, we finally got the most snow that we've ever seen in Washington. We spent much of the day outside or warming up with cocoa.
Miles and his owl sledding down the driveway. Mina and neighbourhood crew are further up the cul-de-sac coming down the big hill.
Rich worked from home today. While Miles had his afternoon nap, i dashed out for a two hour XC ski all around the neighbourhood. It was SO MUCH FUN. This is me, leaving our driveway.
Going by our favourite hiking park. The picture below is in the park and i'm looking at the waterfall aka. "special place" for Mina and i.
Out on the trails. The picture below includes the library near our house. It is the white building in the middle-to-right. I've now driven, biked, run, walked and XC skiied to the library.
Larsen Lake
The (also closed) blueberry farm . I looped around the blueberry farms and started coming home.
The fruitstand. Coming home.

Gingerbread House
I love the Gingerbread house kit from Trader Joes. It didn't come with a crazy amount of candy and you got to do a little step with the icing. I also like that it looks like a ski chalet or something. Bring on the snow!
Winterfest at Gymnastics East
Last weekend, Mina had her first gymnastics recital. It was so sweet. She LOVES gymnastics.
