seattle snow ! ! !

lyn and me in the snow !

the new year is here! and unlike most years, it has actually shown signs of winter.  what i mean by that is it snowed last night.  we went out for a 10pm stroll with elsie (our dog).  it's a blast to watch the pure joy she exudes as she romps around diving into the snow.  the only time she is still is for the brief moment she looks up to make sure she's not lost.  she stops, stares at us and then bolts off as if we've done something to further encourage her shenanigans.  dogs are awesome!

seattle is well known as the emerald city and it kept true to its name.  the white stuff (5 inches of it) stuck around for oh...about 12 hours or so.  so disappointing to those of us who love when it comes and always are sad to see it leave.  oh well...

so this is the first post of the our new blog.  i / maybe we / and even more of a maybe...lyn will be keeping up the events of our year.  i realize many times blogs end up being mostly for the writers, there are a few billion of these pages i imagine, but if you lucky few family, friends, and whomever happen to find our blog, we hope you enjoy having a peek into our lives.
