It's going to be a white Christmas

So it appears that our first Christmas here will be white. The kids are loving the snow and have spent countless hours sledding, building and snowball fighting--guess that includes shoveling too. I'm sure the newness will wear off but for now we'll enjoy the fun. I've discovered that our driveway is very large. Kyle and I have been busy shoveling. Guess I'd better invest in a heating pad for my aching shoulder. : )

Christmas Decor and uh..a birthday too

It has been fun decorating our house for Christmas.

I turned 40 yesterday--oh my that does sound old so we won't dwell too much on that! Most of my presents came early this year, in the form of new dining table, new couches, a water softener etc.

My best presents. I love my kids!
