The sun is out!!!  All day!!!  We have come through the cold snap.  Last Saturday morning we had to get out and go to the church for the boys to practice their Christmas program.  This was the temp.

Once we got to the church, this was a picture from the inside.  So much ice on the inside door because of the outside temp.

All the boys have been building snow forts.  I am somewhat bummed I did not get pictures before they settled and collapsed.  Benjamin shoveled the entire back yard and had one about 4.5 feet tall.

We have already had huge bowls of snow ice cream.  Ok, maybe my boys just had a bowl but I have had bowls.

Bree loves the snow.  She could stay out in it for long periods, I am the one worried about her little paws.  See the snow on her nose, from rooting and digging in the snow.

Just her back end because her head is often buried.

I spent all day yesterday baking.  Made 10 loaves of bread and about 30 treats for all the teachers!

The boys have school on Thursday and then off Fri, 23rd through Mon 2nd.  We have no plans.  It looks like lots of snow for the weekend, so JR will probably be working.  I need to get a game plan together though with some fun activities.  Hopefully we will get enough snow and can go sledding and ice skating.
