Snow Day (and release of 2009 Christmas letter)

********UPDATE*********

Official snowfall: 18 inches (courtesy of the National Weather Service)

********ORIGINAL POST FOLLOWS********

To some, the copious amounts of snow falling in our neck of the woods might be considered inconvenient or annoying.  For us, who had no plans and a lot of catching up to do around the house, it represents fun in the sun snow, hot chocolate, projects, baking, and cuddling up on the sofa watching TV.

The older kids accomplished the TV watching while Ty, Patrick and I slept in.  Then after a lazy breakfast, we hit (figuratively, of course) the white stuff. 

For our younger two, snow play is traditionally followed by hot chocolate with Fluff (PJ has never enjoyed warm beverages of any kind).

Now, Patrick and PJ are working on a project while I finish up the Christmas letters. 

 Thank God (and Mpix) for die cut wallets!
