On December 15, 2008 we received a double present. Our precious little Ryne was born and also it snowed. It was a most glorious day. I know many of you may not like snow or get tired of it. But for us in Desert land it's WONDERFUL.

So when we do get enough that "sticks" we take advantage of the experience.
Brendan made this "mini" snowman. His name was Jack Jr. after the full size "Jack" of 2003. I'll have to find a picture of him...didn't have digital back then.

It was a very wet snow and not much of it but Brendan just HAD to get his snow gear on and go out in it.

The next day, since most of it had melted in town,we decided to drive out on the Red Rock Loup and take some family pictures. And yes, Ryne was with us, although he mostly stayed in the nice warm car.
