Dreaming of a White Christmas

We didn't have to dream this year ~ our city had it's first White Christmas in over 40 years. The snow began falling around 9:30am and as of 11pm Christmas night, it was still falling! We took advantage of the snow (and our new snow bibs) and played, sledded and had a snowball fight this afternoon!

Cooper's not too sure about it!

Reagan and Mom

The neighbor boys came over to sled down our driveway

Greg had to get one more run in!

Reagan and Cooper did not want to go out in the snow, but once they were outside, it was hard to get them back in. We had a great time just spending time as a family and acting like kids! What a great Christmas gift!

Merry Christmas 2010

Merry Christmas from our house to yours!!

a little video of the snow. Wasn't sure how much snow we would get, so I wanted to capture our 1st snow of the year on video.
