Let it SNOW!

Dear hubby,
I know you love to snowboard.
And frankly, I've always been a bit skeptical on how one finds joy in the sport.
Freezing temps, snow, bruised bum and wrist don't exactly scream fun at me.


But then today..
My brother and his friends came by and wanted to know if then could play around on your snowboard. You of course, jumped up, said yes and then immediately started putting on your snow gear.
You asked if I was going out and I said yes. (kinda-sort-of grudgingly; I just couldn't say no to your excited eyes)
I pulled my self away from the heater I was currently hovering over and started throwing on layers of sweaters and jackets, then dashed out the door.
The men built a little obstacle course which included a jump, while my brothers girly-friend and I threw snowball at Artie and the men at work.
(p.s Artie LOVES catching snowballs and eating them. It must sooth his teething gums)
The guys all took turns going down the course. There was lot of turns, twist, dog-running overing and of course, falls.
You could only play for a little bit and then off to work at the Mela-factory you went.
After the boys were done hogging the board (ahem) I decided to give it a whirl.
and then another.
and then another.
and then another.
Until my hiking boots (note: not snow boots) were filled with snow and my toes were numb.
Ahhhh.

And now I understand, why people love to snowboard.
You must teach me your awesome skills sensei hubby and I will forever be yours.


Love your-now-wanting-to-learn-how-to-snowboard-wife.

Dear Husband,

Well, I think we officially have a foot or two of snow on the ground!
I think we spent the majority of our days this past week outside in the snow {especially you and Artie}

I'm starting to warm up to this cold white stuff. It makes everything so peaceful and pure.
I especially love our wintery walks with Artie.
I love how he gallops through the deep snow and I love how he tries to catch the snowballs.
Winter has only been with us for a short time, so who knows if I'm still going to adore it by April.

Although, with snow brings cold weather {duh!}
And well, since the heaters built in our apartment will cost our first born child to run, we are without heat.
Which means layers of comfy sweaters, Cuddling in bed till you leave for work and lazy nights wrapped up in blankets!

Winter is so much better married!

Love your layered wife






P.s This weekend we must invest in a space heater

P.p.s I can't wait to camp in our Igloo!

P.p.p.s When we finish our igloo, we must roast marshmallows with our neighbors!

Winter Monday!

Dear hubsters,
Well.
We had one whole day of beautiful fall weather and then Mother nature decided to dump 4 inches of snow on us.
Winter is here!
and only 46 day's till Christmas! Yay!!
Artie loves the snow! He loves to gallop in it and tries to eat the snow flakes! It's pretty precious.
We should build a snowman! or an igloo!!
Time to get cute boots and jackets so I don't look like a man with tiny legs!

Love snow bunny
