Winter's last Hoorah!!

Well saturday morning I woke up and.....



And then... it didn't stop!!! Tonight is the end of the THIRD day of straight snow. SAY WHAT?? in BC??? and for 3 days!! I mean its not that unusually to get snow a couple times during the winter - but at the end of February I had definitely given up! 

Sunday afternoon Nicks sister Jen, Nick and I took the ATV out into Nicks parents field and dragged the tube behind it. Miro came out for a run with us too!! Never to young to play in the snow. No one can make us grow up!  





And on the way home from school today.... a winter wonderland =) 

Cold treat for a .... cold day?


Days like these make me tolerate the winter. But when the rain comes again - you won't find anymore more excited about the summer =)

Feeling Canadian


Yesterday Nick and I had the family over to celebrate my dads birthday (Feb 14th) and remember Arno - the anniversary was Feb 8th. We went to the cemetery and told about old memories. 


Noah finds Uncle Nick as soon as he comes over! 

And Micah finds the remote as soon as he comes over =)

Dads Birthday Cake

I'm flying!!!

And after everyone left Nick and I went to skate on the frozen pond in Abbotsford! We don't get this type of stuff in BC!!! It never gets cold enough - so I felt SOOPER canadian - we even RANDOMLY got Tim Hortons... it wasn't even planned!!





Now THOSE are good seats. Somebody paid a high price for those.


This one was so shaky because I was laughing so hard at Nick!! I had to post it. He was being model-esque

And this one is bad quality too, I had to keep the shutter speed open long because it was starting to get really dark. (and I didn't have a tripod) But I wanted to take a picture of the sign. The city of Abbotsford had to put that up to save their tiny little butts. haha
