Other Christmas Stuff



We have had a lot of snow this season. There have been at least 4 good snow drops so far and there is probably about a foot of ground outside. We had a big storm on the 23rd and shovelled out on Christmas Eve. Then, on Christmas day we had more snow. It was lightly snowing for most of the afternoon and was beautiful. I didn't make it outside to take photos, but here is one from our front window. Unfortunately, it is hard to see the falling snow unless you zoom in.


We also had a great time with D and M. They came over in the afternoon bearing dinner deliciousness--funeral potatoes and strawberry dee-light--and we had a great meal. Ham and potatoes, strawberry dessert, I mean salad, (pretzal crust, cream cheese middle, strawberry jello top), rolls, salad, and cranberries. Yum. T insisted on sitting mere millimeters away from D, and he was a good sport about it. We were all lethargic after dinner, but D and M rallied and played some games with the kids. After a sufficient rest, we had derby pie for dessert. And we have been enjoying the leftovers since Tuesday. The kids really grasped onto M's "hamwiches", which are ham and funeral potatoes on a roll. Unfortunately, the potatoes are now gone.
