Winter is finally here!

Winter has finally started. We've been enjoying 60 and 70 degree weather until this week. It snowed this week and is now in the 40s and 50s. I've been dreading this because Emma loves to spend time outside and I'm not a fan of the cold. Bert came home early last week and Emma was especially grouchy from being cooped up, so I bundled her up and sent the two of them on a walk. She of course loved it and could care less that is was 50 degrees out. She did look like a purple marshmallow.



As much as I claim to not like the cold, I have to admit there are winter outdoor activities I do like, namely snowboarding and snowshoeing. It has been a long two years since I've done any winter activities mainly due to pregnancy and having a tiny nursing baby. The last time I think I went was a night trip just after I got married, I am way overdue for some winter fun! (if anyone else is itching to go, just let me know...)

I think this picture is from one of my last trips with Heather and Michelle, my usual winter sport buddies.
