Brrrrr…it’s cold here!

Sorry I haven’t written in a while! Jaden did get the chicken pox and he had a whopper of a case of them. I read somewhere that children who catch them from a sibling usually have a worse case due to the lengthy exposure. Anyhow, Jaden was a real trooper, is feeling well now and I have finally been able to venture outside of the house with the boys!

It snowed here on Thursday and Friday. Since our street doesn’t get sunshine in the winter, our yard is still covered in snow while the rest of Portland has melted back to normal.

On days like these, it’s been so wonderful to have our woodstove. It keeps us nice and toasty warm. The boys have had great fun playing outside.

However, the highlight of our day was watching Jaden snowboard down the slope of our back yard!
