Our Very First White Christmas

This was the first year that we spend Christmas at our little cabin in Pine. It was a dream to wake up with snow on the ground.

Our inital sledding experience was on a slightly sloped driveway of some kind. We rode until we hit dirt.

Then we found this place...

The snow was a little deep... Home again, all warmed up The kiddos really liked the opening of the stuff. At one point, after receiving a batch of princess Barbies, Kate announced, "I'm done. Skip me." Finally, a little ditty to wish you a very Merry Christmas...
... and a Happy New Year!

1. HOLY SMOKES!! I'm calling CPS. Your kids didn't have gifts under the tree this year!

2. Never sled in jeans and tennies. You're asking for a chill that way! ;)

3. The snow is so deep here, we almost lost a child!

Love you all and miss you more. It seem wrong that you're in the snow without us.
