Winter time!

Chris and I always talked about snowboarding on our honeymoon. When we decided to get married in June we figured that was out of the question. But freak weather dumped fresh snow on Mount Hood during our first night in Oregon and we had powder ski conditions. Chris had never ridden a snowboard before but he picked it up pretty quickly and we both and a fabulous time. It snowed the entire first day we were on the mountain and they were even requiring chains to drive down the road. Finally, we made it back to our hotel room to soak in the hot tub and sip porter beside the fireplace. The next day the clouds lifted, revealing a magnificant view of Mt. Hood's summit.
A lovely day for a honeymoon:

Rain turned to snow as we climbed the mountian road:
