Last night, the boys had to come pick me up from the pool. I did not feel like biking home in the dark during a heavy thunderstorm. During the night, rain turned into snow and this is what we found this morning! We actually all slept in until 7 (a small miracle) but when the boys saw the white fluffiness outside there was no holding them back. Noah was screaming and dancing around the house with excitement. So we (Karl) got out the snow gear, boots, skis, sleds and they headed out the door.
Max only lasted about 20 minutes, then he was too cold. So he came in for some hot chocolate. When Noah and Karl came in, we feasted on some fresh waffles. Max was mostly feasting on apple sauce and still is... We had to finally turn on the heat today and now it is (almost) warm and cozy in here. Gotta love apartment living...
Karl just headed out on a little snowshoe run. He is training for the Mt. Taylor Quadrathlon in February and there is no holding him back either. He is looking for some like-minded crazies to join him. Anyone?
I am not sure how I feel about this. I do like winter and snow. But I prefer winter to only last 2 months: December and January. The rest of the year I would like clear roads and temperatures warm enough to play outside. Flagstaff's indoor entertainment only lasts us about 3 days. I guess it is time to head up to Utah for Courtney's wedding festivities and Thanksgiving feasting. 2 more weeks! Yippee!

I miss the snow. Good luck keeping busy :-)
What is a quadrathlon? Karl is an animal. So are you. We can't wait to see you soon! Eric wants to bring Noah and Max to his child-care day at school while they're here. He's very excited. You could go on a mega workout session, he could entertain his little cousins. What could be better?
Sounds familiar. Our rainstorm turned into winter wonderland this morning also and the children could not be withheld from the snow. We are excited to see you guys!!
