Post-Crazy Today!
I have been post-crazy today because we had an unexpected day off for SNOW today! I have been getting farther and farther behind with pictures, so today's my chance to catch up! So ... read through this post, and then keep going to see other new pictures that were posted earlier today.
News is that it's December! Christmas decorations, Holiday Pops concerts, and SNOW!!! Don't you love our $15 tree? It was at one of those corner-of-the-road farm stands where you take what you like and drop your money into a locked mail box on the honor system. It's a HUGE, beautiful tree, like the ones you can pay $75 for at Home Depot. But the farmer at that corner charges $15 for every tree. Nice, huh?
The kids had a wonderful time decorating the tree. They're old enough to do a really excellent job of it these days!
See how Gregory set up ALL of our nativity scenes on the fish tank stand? Lots of trees, shepherds, several Mary and Josephs, lots of stables... but somehow, our sets have all been scattered in such a way that there's just one Baby Jesus remaining. Fitting, don't you think?
We got "some" snow overnight. The kids' school was cancelled, so we've had a nice day at home. Ray even took the day off because he had a "use or lose" vacation day that still needed to be used, and SEVERAL hours of snow removal that needed to be done.
The kids lost NO time getting out into the first real snow of the year. They shoveled in a quick breakfast and then headed out. Oh, how I love that they are old enough to get in and out of their snow clothes by themselves!!
While Henry stomped around in the snow on the deck, the big kids played a long, long time just inside the forest in the back yard.

We're so jealous of your snow! We only got a light dusting...enough to make a couple of snow angels. Send some our way!
ReplyDeleteShudder! Boy am I glad our version of snow is a light dusting that melts the next day. :)
