Snow, snow, and even more snow!

We've had another weekend at home because of a storm coming in. Last weekend it was ice and this weekend it was snow. It started snowing Friday afternoon and didn't stop until Saturday night. We had a very little break and then another storm hit Sunday morning.

So, for the second week in a row church was canceled. Our Sacrament meeting Christmas program will be performed next week so now we just have to keep our fingers crossed that we actually get to have church!

Our Sunday was spent watching the First Presidency's Christmas Devotional with the kids, making Christmas ornaments, and making more Christmas cookies. As we sat around the table working on our various projects I couldn't help but feeling like I was inside a snow globe. Even though all this snow has caused havoc with our schedules it sure was pretty to be inside my nice warm home with my family and watch the snow fall.

Oh, and I can't forget to mention that Sunday afternoon we got a phone call that made some of us laugh and some of us cry. No school until January 5th. The kids were supposed to go back to school today and tomorrow but this weekend snow storm took care of that. By the time the kids go back to school after the holidays they will have been off for more than three weeks. Only half of that was scheduled vacation time. The other half was school closings from the ice storm and the snow storm. Looks like there will be lots of makeup days at the end of the school year.
