My twins sent me this pic of our backyard in Port Moody right now. They stuck a measuring stick in the ground: 12 inches and still snowing.

They're having the best time. We happen to love snow after having sweltered in So Cal forever. It's just beautiful. And no Debbie Downers on this one, I'll block.

Can't wait to go back in May... to stay. #BC #Canada 🇨🇦
