snow trip

We headed up to Mt. Hood yesterday to play in the snow since we have been essentially snow-less here. We ended up in Parkdale and played at the school there. There was about 8 inches of snow on the field and a couple decent hills to sled on. We also stopped for ice cream, and oddly enough we were not the only ones in the place. On the way home we stopped in Hood River so Colin could go to the toy store there (which has an excellent selection of Thomas toys), and I got to check out a brew pub I had never been to, which had some decent beers, but over all I was not blown away.

happy new year!

Colin made it until 12:02 last night. He toasted at midnight, put his glass down and passed out on top of Christine. We asked Colin what he wanted to do for NYE and he said he wanted to make sugar cookies. SO we hung out and made snickerdoodles with blue sprinkles, drank our cider and waited for the ball. I drank a bottle of beer from out of the cellar to ring in the new year: Stone Eighth Anniversary to celebrate '08... it was an odd beer when it came out in 2004, but it aged well and was pretty enjoyable.

Happy New Year everybody.
