We are managing what is very typical here in Fairbanks -- the occasional -45F day. Today, it warmed up to 0F so we went to the dog park. Tyler is getting to be a real Frisbee dog. He only somersaulted two or three times when he lost track of the Frisbee. He really creates a snowstorm from the impact.

My grandma sent us a quilt that was completed in part by many members of my family and neighbors. We are so appreciative of this quilt -- it is really keeping us warm on these cold winter days. The white color brightens the darkest of days.
