Snow day. Snow play.

I remember when winter meant snow. A lot of it. We always had a few snow days from school where we'd run around with our friends, building snowmen and igloos, and tiring ourselves out while seemingly never getting cold. I miss those days. 

It doesn't snow in the low-lands like it used to, and living a few blocks from the water means it snows even less. But at least this year the Cascades have seen a lot of snow. So Gavin and I did what any cool parent does and bundled Eleanor up and went to play in the snow. A few times actually. 

We took Dad with us once, and then Dad and I took Michelle and Jason on MLK day. Enjoy our awesome Snow Day pictures (and eventually, if I can figure out how, video). 

First snow day was in late December with Gavin, Eleanor and Lucky. 

The tiny bit of snow the low-lands actually had:

And then our Snow Days with Dad and the kids: 

Needless to say, Eleanor loved the snow and sledding and we're hoping to go up a few more times before spring.
