Winter has unofficially begun

Winter doesn't officially begin until Dec. 21st but here in Northern MI we don't go by what the calendar says, oh no, we are complete rebels.  The calendar says Fall we yell back Winter...Fall....Winter....Fall....Winter.  Okay so maybe we do this because we really have no choice in the matter, we are followers not leaders when it comes to accomodating Mother Nature and her 'Fall' fury blizzards.  But we have thick skin up here in northern country, I mean where else would you have surfers taking advantage of monsterous waves in sub-degree weather man? We brush winter off like it's sweet sugar falling from the sky.  It leaves a sweet taste in many of our mouths except those like Jason who have already had their vehicle stuck in the snow, some more than once again like Jason, and had to shovel their way out, then the taste of winter becomes rather bitter.  But while the white stuff is falling and I'm pretty sure it's here to stay for the next 4+ months, we might as well enjoy it the best way we know how; GET OUT AND PLAY IN IT!!!


Hunter going down the 'not so big anymore to him' hill on the side of our house

Trying to stand up or make it go faster, not sure which will actually work

Wipe Out! 


How does the snow taste Hunter?

Lets try it again

Sage wants to go outside and play

Zander's first time in the snow, loving it for the moment

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hold on there big guy

All bundled up

Not liking the snow too much after he fell face first into it!
