premature snow-day preparations

We told the girls, today at breakfast, that it was going to snow here in Utah on Monday. As you can imagine they started talking about all the things they could do in the neck deep snow that will be waiting for them when they wake up Monday morning. We had to explain that it would actually only be snowing in the mountains, and they were disappointed to say the least. But as expected, they ran down into the dungeon of our basement and found their snow suits and played in them for the majority of the morning.

I wish we could get this excited about the snow coming but I'm not even going to pretend. At least the cold weather means one good thing. Football is here and hockey is on the way!

Seven and in Heaven

It was all about Mia! We had a great time celebrating Mia's birthday with her. But as I sat back and watched I couldn't help but notice a few things. Mia is SEVEN! That was the first thing but I was so thankful to see all the good people in her life there with her, celebrating the day. I know she felt special and to me their was no better reward than that.
She would probably say that her new scooter and Art set were better, but we were all kids once weren't we?

Well, we'll give it a try and see if we can keep up on a blog. We are excited to share our lives to all our readers. Feel free to leave a note and lok at all the pictures. Thanks for coming and we'll see you again soon!
