Fun in the snow

We put on our winter coats today and went outside to have some fun in the snow. We begin by cautiously exploring the snow free areas...



and then we dive on in! Notice how Errol has already begun claiming the territory for himself.


At this point, Fang begins to experience a wardrobe malfunction.


Errol, however, remains sproingy.


Fang is now paralyzed and confused. He wonders, "where have my legs gone?"


Errol decides to sample the flavor of the snow...


and proceeds to get more of it on his face than in his mouth.


Fang was temporarily relieved of his wardrobe problems and moved to a new location, but soon thereafter lost his front legs again. He's doing his best to keep exploring with his nose.


Now we are racing towards the camera! Errol gets a head start because he's slower (and less likely to run away from us at top speed).


His ears fly wildly in the wind!


Fang gains on him and they end up tying at the camera.


We are now cold and wet and shivery... time to go inside and clean up. Total time elapsed... 9 minutes!

Chilly, but pretty!

We woke up to a freezing fog this morning that left beautiful frost over all the trees and other plants in our neighborhood.
