Yesterday and today there is too much snow on the ground for the schools to be open. Yesterday, Anna cried when she found out there wasn't going to be school. It was her one day during the month that she can buy lunch and there was finally going to be something that she liked. I didn't know exactly what a big deal it was for her to buy lunch, but the tears came for quite awhile. When she calmed down, it was time for breakfast and when they finished, it was time to go outside. At that point, the snow wasn't packable enough to make a snowman, but we went over to my in-laws house for a few hours, and it was ready by then. Brandon took the day off so he could stay and play. He always misses out on those things. Half way over to the Kirkwood's I was wondering what the heck we were doing driving in that weather, but we made it just fine and only got stuck in our driveway arriving home. We stopped in the driveway to get some extra snow off and when I tried to pull forward again, I couldn't''t move. I had to rock it back and forth just a little to get it to move. Today, Brandon made it into work alright. I'm not sure what the weather is supposed to be like for next week but I know there might be more snow this weekend. I would be excited, but Saturday is Cookie Day, and it might mess that up. Cookie Day usually happens the last Saturday before Christmas. Lots of our family get together, usually at my in-laws or Brandon's Aunt Brenda's house. We spend the whole day in our Cookie Day aprons, making cookies and memories. It is always so fun and is one of my most favorite parts of the Christmas Season. I haven't gotten nearly enough goodies done yet, so I really want to have that day to get some stuff checked off of my list.
I am adding a poll to the sidebar for those who get our family Christmas letter. I will post the letter in a few days, so everyone can see it, but I want to give the mail a chance to get through first. I hope you are all enjoying this weather. One week and counting! -Pam-
