Is It Christmas?

Our deck and yard

One of the trees in our backyard

We woke up to over a foot of snow! I can't believe it! We have never gotten this much before Thanksgiving. I don't even have snow pants or boots for the kids!

Claudia and William came downstairs together this morning. That walked right past the sliding doors in the kitchen. I told them to back up and look outside.

Claudia: "Whoa...".
William: "Whoa...".
Claudia: "Can I make a snowball, a snow angel and a snowman?"
William: "Is Santa coming tonight?"

The kids are not the only one in the house that is excited about the snow....

Brian is outside clearing off the car so he can head out to purchase his first snow blower. Six years of shoveling has taken a toll on his shoulder. The store doesn't open for another 45 minutes.... Guess he wants to be the first in line.

Have a snow filled day!

I'm so sad! We don't even have a flake. Ella was digging into the bottom of the grass to find some snow this morning:(

Not a flake here! Have fun! Enjoy it while it's white - soon it will brown and a huge mess :-)
