UPDATE: As of 1535 we are up to 15 inches of snow and it’s still falling fast! Woo hoo!!!
Since I last visited the Internet, we’ve celebrated Princess’s birthday with G’ma and G’pa so they could watch her open her gifts. We also celebrated Christmas with them . . . this is what they gave Dude and Princess…
We are totally not a video game family. Outside of a couple plug-n-plays (I just HAD to have Ms. Pac Man!), we don’t have any - until now! And man did we have fun with it! It’s the best video game ever! We all had a blast bowling . . . even G’ma and G’pa. We tried out a ton of the games and our arms were even sore after playing for a couple days - straight ;-) Yes, we are getting older!
Grandma and Grandpa had to leave yesterday, so we got the house cleaned up after they left and then went to see Bolt. Lucky for us - we got to sit in the FRONT row . . . bluck! But it was still fun - I think Bolt is one of my favorite kid movies of the past couple years 
Then it was home for some quiet time and then off to some friends’ house for dinner, drinks, and fun. And guess what . . . we played more Wii! The kids were downstairs playing with toys and watching a movie, so the adults got out some shots and started bowling . . . and then boxed . . . Oh. My. Gawd! That boxing is an actual workout! My back is even a bit sore today - no need for the gym, that’s for sure! So yes . . . the verdict is in . . . Wii are getting older
And then today, we woke up and saw THIS!
I’m sure I don’t need to tell you all again how much I love love love snow! And I would like nothing more than to go outside and play in this wonderful light fluffy snow . . . all 9 inches of it as of 8:00 a.m….
It’s supposed to keep snowing for most of the day - big fluffy dry flakes - woo hoo! But alas . . . after such a busy week, my plan is to sit inside and do pretty much nothing useful today - afterall, we do have an entire winter to enjoy here in the snowbelt. Oh, and this wonderful snowstorm means that I get to break out my SNOWBLOWER today - I. Can’t. Wait!
How was your weekend?
I’m so glad that you had a great visit and lots of fun! I’m not so excited for snow as you are- but glad you are enjoying your snow! We only have rain and a bit of ice today.
LOVE the snow.. We finally got some over the past couple of days also, but not like you have there.
Shhh… Don’t tell the five, but Wii too are going to have a Wii in the house. Only it will be waiting for them on Christmas Morn….
I’ve been telling them I dont want a Wii in the house - so they are going to be darn surprised! Wii got them a Guitar Hero (for the boys) and Dance Dance Revolution for the girls, It came with Wii sports - and we also picked up a Wii play.
Sounds like it may be fun!
You. Are. A. FREAK!!!! You LIKE snow??!! BAH!!!
We cannot be friends.
The snow is absolutely beautiful!! We got some Saturday night and a little more yesterday in MN but nothing like you which is fine with me!!! As I get older the only time I like snow is watching it fall from inside my warm cozy home!!! Love…Mom
WOW! That is an impressive snowfall for Dec 1. I’m jealous!
Happy Belated Birthday to your sweet girl (cute picture!). Love the snow pictures - SO JEALOUS!! I’m just happy it is so cold (probably only 40 right now) here in Texas - finally.
Have a great week - Kellan
I don’t know anybody who loves snow as much as you do! Enjoy it!
We ourselves only have a very thin layer of ‘the white stuff’ which is surprising for the beginning of December. Normally we’ve had a couple of blizzards by now. I have to say, I’m loving the slow start to the snowy season!
I hope you have lots of fun with your Wii! You’ll have to recommend some games for me. My house is getting a Wii for Christmas… except the kids don’t know it yet!!!
Thank you SOOO much for keeping this mess on YOUR side of the mountain! This was the day we brought Pres home and I didn’t need the added stress of snow to make me crazier!
And…I’m incredibly jealous of the Wii!
