We weren't expecting snow this weekend, so we took the trailblazer, which was a bad idea. We ended up getting a lot of snow. We did a lot of sliding. We went skiing/snowboarding Saturday night after sundown, and had a lot of fun. The next day when we got up, it was 3 below. Crazy as we are, we decided to stick with our original plans, to go back to the ski resort. It was a terrible mistake, even though it warmed up to 1 degree, we were miserable. We had good clothes, but our goggles kept freezing up and we couldn't see, and the slopes were so cold, they had turned to ice. It hurt really bad to fall on that stuff!
At least we had a warm place to go back to. Thanks Grandma Lois for letting us stay at your house!

This is the weather we drove in all weekend. Much better suited for the Jeep.
Adam's new birthday present, (the long one in the middle). We were going to shoot them up north this weekend, but it was so cold and there was so much snow, we would have never been able to get far enough off the road with just the Trail Blazer. Adam was so excited about them that he carried them around with him, at night he lined them up next to the bed, in the morning he lined them up in the living room.
When we got home our kitties and Walter were so happy to see us. Tomorrow is a big day for the kitties, they are getting declawed and fixed. They don't know it yet, I hope they forgive us.
For those of you who are still wondering, Walter still comes to work with us every day. And Pops hasn't sent Walter back to "The Cage," keep your fingers crossed for him. As long as he is a good boy, he might be able to pull this off. On Friday we had a couple guys into the Office to talk about the health insurance benefits, they brought pizza for the whole shop. Walter managed to get his fill, but he must not have gotten exactly what he wanted because when the gentlemen passed by my desk to say goodbye, Walter starting barking...(bad dog!) He's only supposed to bark at the people who aren't working, or the ones who skip work. He's still in training, really he should get 90 days to get it right! And after that, he should go straight to salary.
