Hannah's 12th Birthday

For Hannah's birthday we went to the Snohomish Aquatic Center to their indoor water park. Hannah brought her friend Jade along. We got the most snow in the past 100 years here in Seattle, so it was a snowy birthday. Hannah picked Dominos and macarons for her birthday dinner. Happy Birthday Hannah. We love you, you pre-teen!

Snow on Christmas

After visiting Snoqualmie Falls, we saw some snow on the side of the road. We found a nearby park and stopped to play in the snow on Christmas Day. We built a snowman and Hannah and I had a good ol' fashioned snowball fight. It was a lot of fun.  

Snow Day

The sun finally came out and it was warm enough for Hannah to play in the snow. She calls it "ssss" (in case you are keeping track that's also "what the snake says").

Winter Wonderland

We had our first real taste of snow today. Hannah was fascinated by all the snow covering the ground and falling from the sky. In the morning she watched some children playing in the snow through our window.




Once we had her dressed for the cold we took her out to play.





Someone built this giant snowman just outside our apartment.




Hannah kept picking up handfuls of snow and then would start to cry as her hands got cold. She never thought to let go of the snow! We would empty her hands and warm them up and as soon as we let her go, she had another handful of snow. If anyone knows where to get extra tiny snow-gloves let us know.
