1st Day on the snow

Eileen and I took advantage of the early snow and went snowboarding at
Crystal Mountain over the weekend, which is down by Mt. Rainier. They
had almost all of the trails open though there were some rocks so the
new snowboard is off to get fixed this week. I'd like to get one more
day in before we head East for Christmas.

It's snowing!

They SAID it doesn't snow in Seattle, yet here it is, days BEFORE Thanksgiving, and it's snowing. 

Simon likes the snow much better than he did last year... here we are on our morning walk with Bridget, who's visiting with Eileen for the holiday.

Chilly day in the northwest

It's a chilly day but the sun is out so we hit the playground anyway. Not many other kids made it out which suits Simon just fine.
