Snow What?

So really, it is almost April and this isn't Michigan so what in the world is it doing snowing in Seattle. I mean it hardly snows in the winter. But yes, we actually did get some pretty heavy snow on Friday. Although it did melt by the end of the day I guess it got us in the winter spirit. We decided to go with it and enjoy this last hurrah of cold weather and head to the mountains for some real snow fun! We found an empty spot off one of the forest service roads and made our own little snow park. Jason carved us out some wicked sled runs complete with steps to climb. Isabel had a blast walking through the "deep snow". Josiah LOVED sledding though he didn't really brave climbing in the snow until the end. We took a great hike to a nearby river and had fun throwing snowballs into the rapids. We had a couple of close calls in the hike as both Jason and I sank in the snow a good three feet. It almost swallowed me alive, but really it was a blast.

Okay, now really, spring can come anytime!
