No snow in Everett






We are having a very mild winter this year so we drove up to Snoqualmie Pass yesterday and went sledding! I was inspired by my brother Dave's snowday for his birthday this year. I forget how much I love the mountains. This is so cheesy but it's like the John Denver's "Annie Song" You fill up my senses like a night in the forest... I have been exercising everyday at the YMCA and it has finally shown practical application because I could totally climb the sledding hill and not get tired! I haven't lost any weight over the past 6 months but I haven't gained any either and a lot my fat is being transformed into muscle. I do 30min of elliptical and every day and Tuesday and Thursday I lift weights for about 20 min. I am learning a lot and James gets time with other kids. I hope I can keep it up.

Looks like you guys had a good time. James looks warm in all his gear. I couldn't get London to keep hers on- she would rather freeze.

What a fun snow adventure for you guys. Good for you for working out too it is amazing just how your endurance improves when you are working out consistently. Yay!

I'm with you - LOVE the mountains.

So jealous of your workout routine! Dave & I were just reminiscing the other day about when we would life/cardio together at BYU each day. I love working out in a gym. I guess I'm a social exerciser, smile. Go you!
