This year we had Christmas at our house because I had to work Christmas night. We really did have a good time. Grandma and Grandpa brought the little snowmobile and the boys rode it in the park behind the house most of the afternoon on Christmas eve. They had a blast. We didn't have a whole lot of snow the day before Christmas but we sure go a lot on Christmas day. The boys had a really good time building a giant snowman. It was just about as tall as Adam. Mason, Grandma, and I we stayed in and stayed warm.
On Christmas morning the boys got a shock because Santa had taken all the presents from under the tree and moved them downstairs. They we pretty shocked when there was nothing under the tree. We finally got them to go down stairs and they were so excited to see what Santa had brought. All and all I think they had a really good Christmas.
We went to Idaho for New Years. It snowed for 3 days. It has been along time since they have had that much snow. We played dominoes every night and Uno Attack with kids. Both the boys wanted to sit by Grandpa so they could make him hit the button. They loved to see the Uno game spit the card out at him. We had to go home on New Years day because again I had to work that night.
I think that we brought the snow home with us too. On Wednesday of this week it started snowing and it would not stop. I went out and cleaned the driveway out at about 10 am and at that time we had about 16 inches of snow. I went back in and at 3:30 pm I had to go get the kids from school and we had another 8 inches. We have snow piled up everywhere. Since we live in a Home owners association the city does not plow our streets. The plow guy didn't get to our development until almost 4 pm and as you can imagine everyone was getting stuck in the streets. What a mess. I think we will have snow until July.
