Snowboarding in Seattle



We had our first snow day of the year here in Seattle. Not a blizzard but still enough to have fun with. We got about 3 or 4" of snow in the backyard. Vega has been talking about snow, snowboards and snow princesses for weeks now so she was incredibly excited. After we got enough snow I took her out back and pulled her around the yard on the snow board.

She would hold my hand and I would pull the snowboard using the strap. She kept yelling "faster daddy, faster". One time I went around a corner really fast and made the snowboard skid out. She managed to stay up! Even though it surprised her and scared her a little she was really "Weeeeee!" After that she wanted to skid out on every corner.



Meanwhile Deklan was seeing snow for the first time in his life. He was totally content to sit there in his gigantic snow suit. I dropped some snow for him to play with and he spent the whole time poking at it with his fingers and laughing. He thought the whole thing was very funny.
