::adieu (maybe)::

I had these nice photos that I'd never blogged about. Well--they're nice if you're a big fan of snow and winter. Which I only am for a short time in like December.

Anyway, I had this bright idea that I was going to do a farewell to winter and snow, sing the "so long, farewell, aufweidersehen adieu" song from the Sound of Music and celebrate spring and green grass.

Then it snowed yesterday. And I almost cried.
None of it stuck to the ground, but it was soppy and yucky and NOT springy at all.

(once there was a snowman....tall tall tall.....in the sun he melted......small small small)

Oh well, at least I don't have to worry that I'm cursing us to the longest winter ever by posting an adieu to snow. We're already there!

Could somebody tell spring we're waiting??!?

::even more snow::

On our snowday Kris Max and Sultan headed off to the dog park to expend some excess energy. I didn't go. It was much nicer for me that way.

But Kris came back with some awfully good photos on his phone.

The snow was really deep. I had a hard time walking in it, I can't imagine how tough it would be at Max's height.
Luckily Sultan's made for stuff like this.

He's in his element.

They made a ginormous snowman.

The kind of snowman you always dream of making as a kid.



And since they were at the dog park Max requested a special chain link picture. Evidently he liked the effect of the last one.

Hilarious.

Max and I made cookies yesterday, and we thought in honor of the giant man of snow left at the park, we'd make some special dog park snowmen.

Now that's appetizing, right?
