First of all, it's still snowing. Yeah, no big deal to you Wyomingites, Coloradans, Michiganders, and the rest of you out there, but here in the Seattle area this is huge. It just doesn't do this here very often and when it does, it usually melts right away and we all go back to trudging through the darkness and the rain until Spring finally arrives.
This week, however, the temperatures have stayed below freezing and the snow has continued to fall. Everyone we know has been in a celebratory mood about it. Anastasia and I have certainly been loving it. Annabelle, she can't get enough of it. She tromps about, leaping and bounding through the white stuff, sticking her face in it, biting at it, and kicking her back legs out and "swimming" through it.
This afternoon, I walked Annabelle down the main street near out house, down to 167th Street, which is a very large, steep hill. It was closed of course due to the snow and many people were taking advantage of this closure, turning the street into a large sledding area. Inspired, I walked back home, grabbed the snowboard, and we all walked back for some fun on the hill.

And now, the happiest dog on Earth:
