SNOW!!!!

It snowed in North Carolina this week. It was beautiful. One day of snow and the kids had 3 days off of school. Amazing. The city came to a stand still. Maggie the dog wasn't sure what to think of all this cold wet stuff. It was pretty but I am glad it is gone.

Yes, that is a kayak. It makes a great sled. It even fit 2 kids. The dog wasn't so sure about it though.

Happy Birthday Sydney!!

Because we were gone for Christmas we decided to hold a post-New Years party at our house with the family. Matt made Navajo Taco's. Thanks to the Rasors' for their recipes. Everyone enjoyed the food. We always try to play a game with the adults and send the children else where. This never seems to quite work out. This year poor Beth ended up leaving early because one of her kids was having a melt down. This was particularly sad because she is always the life of the party. We did get one game in and I insist we continue to try. Maybe we will have to go so far as hire a babysitter next time.
