G'parents Ohio were out last weekend and we experienced our first snow of the season. It was rain then snow then rain then who knows what else in between. And it was cold.
Eddie asked me why g'ma and I always go shopping when they come. Don't recall my answer, but it should have been, so our husbands don't have to.
Josie must have been asleep while these were taken. I just learned today that Cookie has stopped giving J naps, which would explain her mood by the end of the day and why she sometimes accepts them on days we are with her.
It was a thick wet snow. It stuck on everything and I learned I don't have a snow brush in my car.
I had said Den was traveling a lot this month and then I had to add 2 days for him to travel to Wisconsin for the funeral of his Aunt who had been ill a long time. We debated long and hard about wether the kids and I should go along and when we saw the forecast high was 12 one day and not much more the next day, that made our decision. It will be a quick, less than 48 hours trip for Den.
Even G'pa got in the snowflake catching mood.
I'm not proud of our light display (except that one tall bush that was quite a feat of engineering as Den was standing about 5 feet under it trying to use a pole to hang the lights), but I am proud that the display exists. I have always wanted one and thanks to the kids, got Den to cave. Not only that, but these are all LED lights. Yay! Now if I can just get him to stick a couple nails in the house, we can hang them on the porch or around the trim of the house. This also could help to hasten the chopping down of the prickly holly tree that neither of us wants...
