Winter Wonderland & Santa

Here are a few pictures of the kids, me, and YES...it's big Michael too. As some of you know, we had a great snow last week. So as much as I HATE the cold, I was talked into joining the family out at the sledding hill for about an hour of sledding and about three hundre pictures. There are so many great ones that it was difficult to pick which ones I wanted to post but here they are. We had a lot of fun but I was very cold when we got home. Oh well, it was a great excuse for hot chocolate. Tonight Santa came through the neighborhood on a fire truck (apparently that is how he travels in the off season) and gave out small pieces of candy before posing for pictures. The girls were very happy about that. I did have to go out in the cold tonight too...I feel some more hot chocolate coming on!!!!
