Snowed In!!

So… did you survive the Christmas holidays? I guess those of us with kids are still in the mist of Christmas break.

The Pacific Northwest was basically snowed in for almost 2 weeks. As much as I love my family… being stuck at home with them for so long got to be a little much. We did enjoy the snow though. There is a hill near our house and all the neighborhood kids used it to go sledding. My children loved it. They also made their very first snowman, with a carrot nose and all. So in that sense the snow was wonderful and many great memories were made.

However… indoor time got to be a little tough. I found myself searching for new things to do. I even found myself flipping through old collage textbooks. Maybe I was just being nostalgic for the days past when I had all the freedom in the world. Ha, ha.

Yesterday the snow was more or less gone. I can get my car out of the drive way and onto the street again. Even the grocery store sounds like a fun adventure to the kids and I. Just to be among other people is a treat!!
