Let the winter begin!


Nathan getting on his boots and snowpants!


Brushing snow off the truck!


Helping Dada shovel snow.

We had our first big snowfall last night. We got about 4 inches so not really that much. It was enough we had to go shovel the walk and brush the cars off though.

This is Nathan's first year in which we think he will really like playing outside in the snow. He's got boots and snowpants so we got those on him. When we got outside, he wanted to make a snowman, but sadly the snow we got was just too dry to do anything with!

Instead, he helped me brush the snow off our our 3 vehicles. That takes quite a long time! The ENTIRE time I was using the big brush, he was brushing the snow off the vehicles with his little gloved hands. It was so cute. He kept saying, "Helping." I need to get him a little brush!

He also liked making footprints. He did get cold after awhile and wanted to come inside for snack, but he did very well for our first snowfall!

On a Christmas note, I've been doing a lot of Christmas shopping online this year. The UPS and FedEx guys have been coming to our house often! Nathan has gotten used to this and has a fun sentence to describe it. It goes like this:

"Truck! Guy. Box. Ding!" This of course translates to: "Here comes the guy in the big truck who will bring a box and ring the doorbell!"

His sentences are so cute. Hopefully, they will turn more and more into real sentences at some point.

Bonfire

 Jeremy and Nathan went up to Ellensburg for a bonfire. Elizabeth was really sick and I stayed home with her. Jeremy took a few photos. Nath...
