It’s been VERY cold this last little while. We got a fresh new blanket of snow!!

Since Doc is new to “winter”, we thought we’d take him out and make a snowbunny or snowbear together.

Unfortunately, the snow was the not the right type of snow. It was the fluffy kind, not the packing-snow kind 🙁

But Doc did get to try a little snowboarding:

Rufus said he felt like someone was watching us.

is someone there??

I think we’ll be safe up here!!

I think we're safe up here..

We built a rough snow fort for protection..

Rufus: *whispering* so uh.. what do we do? do we throw snow at it???

stalemate?

And then the “thing” came over and said “HI! I’m George! The Abominable Snowman!”

Hi! I'm George, the Abominable Snowman!

He is very friendly, and just wanted to play in the snow with us. But it was getting very cold, and the snow was blowing everywhere.

Doc said he was too cold and we should all go in.

Doc: time to go in! I'm cold!!

And so we all went in and had hot cocoa with marshmallows while sitting on the heat vents to dry out!!
