Ewww, Snow!
It's finally here. The wait is over. The best part of living next to a mountain in Utah. Am I laying on the sarcasm thick enough? Right now it is snowing. I hate snow. The whole winter season is not much better. The seemingly endless gray skies. The bitter biting cold. Having to be inside with bickering kids and know that I am neglecting the cleaning that needs to be done. There are two things I am looking forward to. Sledding. We had so much fun last year with the kids. Even though Ty was only one he was a trooper, until Dave helped him face plant into the snow. The girls love racing and taking turns making new trails. And, the holidays. Starting with Halloween. I decorated a month ago. I love when each new holiday season starts, seeing the excitement on my kids faces. In the bleak winter months I have the shining faces of my beautiful children to light the way back into spring. I am only feeling this way because they are getting along and playing quietly in a different part of the house. I can't even hear them. Ahhhh, bliss.

Krista...I'm so with you on the snow thing. Look we might not agree on football but winter is the same for both of us. I hate the snow and cold weather and grey skies. The only sanctifying thing about winter is the sledding and the holidays. IF it weren't for those graces I honestly would migrate south every year!
I look at it as a legitimate excuse to stay in my warm pj sweats all day long, and bake warm brownies to eat (all day long)...
BTW, the new Twilight trailer is awesome:)
How is the family. We love you guys. The work is great. I sure miss hugs from Rilie and Jenna. Go Utes! Grampa Lynn
Way to find the positive among the freezing bitter cold. We are definitely going to try our hand at sledding this year. I think Addie will love it. And... I seriously doubt that your kids bicker!
