Mysterious Snow Tracks

Pre-Birthday Office Decorations

Zach wanted to decorate his dad's office for his birthday. So, who was I to intervene?

Scott was surprised when he got into the office today.

SNEAKY ZACHARY!!

Sun and Snow

It has been a weather-crazy January. We've had a consistent, blustery wind, days of 60+ degrees F, and then today dropped on us about 8 inches of snow...so far. It's a beautiful snow! I love when the ground and trees are covered. The night is light.

At about midday, Scott shoveled before leaving. By 2pm, Zach and I decided to shovel again. He was such a patient shoveler. I set him in the mound of snow on the side of the driveway, and he sat there watching for a while. But when I got out of site, he had to come see where I'd gone. The descent led to a face-plant or two. :( Luckily, with the snowsuit, hat, pacifier, and sunglasses, very little skin was exposed. So I just brushed him off, and he was okay. :)

The link in the title of this post includes more pictures of both our sunny Sunday and snowy today.

Cade's Dad Came to Visit

James (Wedekind, my friend from high school and college) was in town to ski and was able to squeeze in a dinner with us. We foolishly served him green chili (he's married to a New Mexico native, Jessica, who has fed him the real thing!), but hopefully his Fat Tires helped round out the taste!

James's son Cade (www.jamesandjesswedekind.blogspot.com) is 5 months old. Hopefully sometime soon the little guys can play together!

Nana and Pop's Visit (click here for more pics)

Nana and Pop came back through Denver on their way home from Christmas in CA. It was fun to see them. They helped celebrate Mom and Nana's birthdays with fondue and chocolate cake.

I showed Pop how I'm combining my golf and guitar skills
