First snow of the season

We got our first snow of the season a little bit ago! Since then we’ve had more, but there’s something special about that first coating of white outside. Carson was pretty fascinated with it (he’s technically experienced snow before last winter, but I’m sure he doesn’t remember it). We couldn’t resist heading outside to play for a bit.

He actually didn’t really like walking around in the snow/grass like this. And he really didn’t like when he fell and ended up sitting in it:

He did like touching the snow on the porch, where he didn’t have to walk through it, and holding the little snowballs I made him. We’ll have to get some real snow play in soon!

Visit from Paige’s parents

Several weeks ago, my mom and dad came for a quick visit on their way to Utah. It was great! Too short, but still so fun to see my parents and get to spend time with them. Here’s a big photo dump of a bunch of pictures my mom took (except for the one of my mom and Carson: I took that one, and I’m pretty proud because I don’t know how to use her or Josh’s fancy cameras at all and usually the pictures I take end up blurry). We tried to have a mini photo shoot with Carson, who more or less cooperated…sort of…

Mom and Dad, Josh and I loved seeing you and talking with you, and Carson loved playing with grandma and grandpa! Hope everyone enjoys the pictures.

Just a normal trip to the park

Just a normal trip to the little park around the corner from our house. Carson and I go there fairly often. Usually his first favorite thing to do is collect some wood chips, sometimes in a little pile on the slide:

He’s also a fan of the bouncy horse, though sometimes just standing by it and jiggling it is exciting enough:

Then of course there’s the slide. This particular day, we were at the park when Josh drove by on his way home from work, so Josh got out to play, too. Carson loved that because he got to have Daddy help him down the slide:
