Snow?! At OUR home?

We celebrated THREE Snow Days before Winter Break. Then we were snowed-in the entire first week of vacation. For 5+ days we did not leave our house by car.

Our flights to visit CA were canceled. We spent our first Christmas in the NorthWest. And we experienced snow, Snow, SNOW! And shoveling. That part sucked.

At the beginning there was just a tiny bit of snow. Enough for Frosty.

and the obligatory snow pictures.


But then the snow just kept coming and we could sled,



Sledding down the street (just 1 block away):



and make our whole snow family!



It's a White Christmas everyone!!

Our little Tae Kwon Do boy

It took him a while (and a few viewings of Kung Fu Panda) to warm up to the sport.

But after successfully breaking his first board, Cal was quite excited about his martial arts skills.



We signed him up for "Tough Tots" next month and hope he'll continue to enjoy this sport and part of his cultural heritage.
