Winter Wonderland!


This song has a whole new meaning for me as we got a chance to frolick in the snow today. Church was canceled and so we spent some time this morning on the Christmas lesson from the nursery manual about Jesus Christ and his birth. We then joined our neighbor Meisha and her husband and helped make a snowman.
Later that afternoon Meisha came and "kidnapped" me and we went for a long walk down to get her a newspaper at one of the coffee shops at the bottom of the hill. It was fun to chat and be out in the falling snow. It was incredibly beautiful and a little crazy how little traffic there was in the usual busy Sumner area. I've been told we've made national news with our weather. We currently have about 6-8 inches of snow on the ground and it's been snowing almost non-stop for a few days now. The airport has been shut down and I wonder if my sister is going to really make it on Christmas Day.

There was a lot of time to kill so we got the girls involved in making Christmas Cookies, although they discovered how yummy the dough was and then it was more about the snitching than the making. :)

I guess all this snow makes you glad you don't live in utah anymore? Driving, bundling, shoveling, freezing, and slush. (Sigh) Alas...
