First Snow

When we returned from Ellensburg after Thanksgiving dinner and our Cousin sleep-over we stopped at Alpental to play in the snow. It was beautiful and magestic with the high mountain peaks and towering trees covered in snow and the crystal clear stream running below. Alton loved it right up till the moment he grabed a handful of snow from Cheri's glove and screached with shock as it froze his little fingers. I promptly threw the whole hand into my mouth and had him warmed back up in no time.
