It is still surreal that we can literally head out our door & into our own outdoor oasis. As a friend said "you have your own little state park!"
Since Brandon got snowshoes for Christmas (& Melanie has his old, smaller pair), we now can all go snowshoeing together... the kids love it!
Melanie is equally happy to stop & just play in the snow...
...our little snow angel!!
We went way back in the valley... & even walked over the pond that is both frozen & covered with snow. Melanie kept digging down to see if we were really on ice!
A view from back in the valley out towards our house.
It was a nice day for a walk!
On another day... I took advantage of Brandon being at school & Melanie napping with Mike home working & headed out for an afternoon snowshoe on my own.
... it angles up the bluff behind us & has been a great hiking & snowshoeing trail!
I made it all the way up & then bush-whacked back down & walked back through the valley, keeping an eye on a flock of turkeys who weren't quite sure what to make of me as I popped out of the woods!
