Winter Wonderland


It isn't even winter yet and the white stuff is in the air. We got 5 inches of snow in Oregon City. In fact the whole Portland Metro Area got snow. That hasn't happened in a long time. We are also in a deep freeze until next Sunday. We are expected to get more snow on Wednesday and again on Saturday/Sunday before we get out of this artic blast. Jared had training scheduled to teach but no sooner had he gotten there they decided to cancel due to the weather. So we were able to play in the snow all morning.
Conner had lots of fun throughing snow balls at everyone. At one point he was in the middle of the road crawling on all fours. I asked him what he was doing and he said "I'm a snow moving snail". What a character.
He also built a big snow ball. We tried to make a snowman but Conner ran out of gas before we were done. Maybe next time.
Daddy showed Conner how to make snow angels. Conner kept forgetting to move his legs so some of his angels looked a little different. But that's ok. He had lots of fun!
We tried to get a picture of us together but it was snowing so hard at times that the snow was getting in Conner's eyes.
Colby and Tucker even had some fun. Colby wasn't listening very well so we had to put him in the kennel. Jared held Tucker for a picture. He isn't a puppy anymore. This was his first real snow so he still is getting use to it.

You guys have more snow than we do. There is only a 40% chance for snow this afternoon. I like to watch the snow, I do not like to drive in it. Luckily there was none on the ground today because I had to drive home from Salt Lake after dropping Bob off at the airport. Ask Conner to finish his snowman and take a picture off it for the blog so that Aunt Dani can see it. Love ya all, stay safe.
