Two days ago, we woke up to a big snow storm. I'm talking giant feathery flakes that sparkled! Tristan was completely mesmerized sitting in the windowsill watching them come down. And then every time I took Korra out potty, she went nuts trying to catch them. She was way to distracted to go potty, so it took a very long time standing in the freezing storm.
The next morning, our car was buried. Which was fine, we decided not to go anywhere, just hang out and relax. When Nick took Korra out for her morning walk, he let her off her leash in the yard and it was super funny to watch her bound around in the snow that was up to her shoulders. She made little trails all over the yard, and her white fur blended right in. I bundled Tristan up in his coat and boots, and we took him out and let him walk around in the snow as well. He was very unsteady and unsure, but after he got to throw a few snowballs, he thought it was just great. Nick also made a sledding ramp with a few of the neighborhood kids (which our next door neighbors angrily destroyed with a pole later that night…..), and took Tristan down in a sled. We're not sure if he liked that or not.
I just love the snow, it makes everything look new and clean, not to mention it makes the outside smell crisp and wintery. I sat in the window as much as Tristan just watching it fall. And then I went and played in it with Korra as well. I'm glad winter is finally here! Summers here are just so unbearable (just because I'm from Alaska and the cold is my friend!)
nice hair, huh?
