Well, so begins 2009! We had a chance to go up into the mountains for the day and do a little snowshoing. This was Blake first real experience with snow (other than the little bit that we've had at our house this year). It was a little windy which made it a little tricky because it makes it feel pretty cold, so even though we had Blake bundled up in his little snow suit he didn't like it much. We had Kona (our dog) with us and Daisy (our friend's dog), so we had our hands full :-) We hiked at St. Mary's Glacier and hiked for about 45 minutes up and then headed back so that Blake wouldn't get too cold.
That was the excitement of our New Years this year. Otherwise we just relaxed at home and got to bed early for a couple nights which was nice since Blake has been waking up in the middle of the night thinking it is time to play lately. And then we had a wind storm last week like one I have never experienced before. We had 70-80 MPG gusts during the night...so that pretty much kept us awake most all night. It also blew down part of our fences (about 8 posts worth) and made for a 'fun' New Years fix-it project :-) Oh well, guess that's how it is sometimes...wouldn't have been too bad if it hadn't been 23 degrees on the day i was trying to wrap that project up. All i can say is brrrrr.
