First snow

This morning as the kids were waiting to get picked up for school it was snowing HARD! They could not resist sledding and snowboarding down the driveway! It actually was a bad storm that moved through very strongly and quickly. It took the kids one hour to get to school when it normally takes 10 minutes!! Crazy. They didnt even count tardies because everyone who was up iliving by us were all stuck in snow traffic. Then just a few hours later it looked like the second picture - bright and beautiful with the roads drying quickly. Amazing! That is why I love it here!!

Baby, its cold outside!!

Well, you know that not much is going on when I resort to talking about the weather!! Actually, today is my b-day so it has been a good day as well. But first, IT HAS BEEN SO COLD!! Today we woke upto the trees being covered in ice because it snowed and it was foggy and freezing cold. 13 degrees for the high. We have had alot of that lately.

I have a few pictures it add at sometime but I need to down load - this time very carefully - but our computer actually crashed yesterday so Im going to wait for a few days. Maybe by then we will have a few b day pics too. We had to reinstall a few things but thankfully all of our pictures were saved!! We will be backing up ASAP!!

Todd has been so thoughtful this weekend! He could not tke much time off around Christmas so he offered to take off this past Friday and today. The kids had both days off too. Today Todd and I went out to lunch and the kids also were at friends house for awhile. Thanks Lori! Saturday - when it got up to a balmy 40 degrees we all went sledding together. They decorated the house and made dinner today. It has been a great day!

Well, gotta go for now. Pictures next time.

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

We have had several good sized snow storms in the past week or so. We definately had a white Christmas with 9 or so inches falling throughout the day. We were planning to go see Todd's folks but couldn't get down there. It was pretty though. The one with the dogs I call - On Dasher, on Dancer, on Odie, on Misty!!!
