Since we've been back

 We went from this 

 and this (at my parents' house in WA).

 To this

 and this (at home in MN).

We had perfect "snowman snow"

and Diego made six adorable little snowmen.

 We also took our first trip to our town's

AMAZING sledding hill.

We truly live in the "rolling prairies" --

Our area is particularly known for the ridges and hills.

Might as well "make hay while the sun shines"

and enjoy the snow while we have it.

(Though it has been too sticky to ski.)
