Once There Was a Snowman, Snowman, Snowman...


We had a little storm last week, I guess it was big enough to get Brad out of work (if the wind blows enough, they shut everything down here). Appearently, a mini tropical storm-type thing will do the trick. The pleasures that come with a small storm are imense; work shuts down early, we get rain storms (my friend even got her slip and slide out because it works even better in the rain!), a bit of lightening (don"t worry, it was far away from the slip and slide!), and snow!


We decided to make the journey up our mountain after church on Sunday. To get ready for church was quite an accomplishment! We left the house with church bags and books, lunch bags, changes of clothes, about 10 pairs of jammies per child (the only warm clothing they own besides jeans, which were in the bag too), socks and lots of baggies and rubberbands (this was for my mitten invention-socks on hands with baggies on top with a rubberband holding it all together. Baggies shoved in your pants too...worked great!), along with 3 boogie boards. Neadless to say, we had a full carload.

When we got pretty close to the top, we pulled over for a minute and Kaili was so excited, she left her shoes behind, in the toasty car! She is definitely a warm blooded child!
