>We bought this yesterday. The girls each picked out an ornament for themselves, then one for me and one for scott and then one for the doggies to share. (I dont know if we posted this but our christmas decorations bit the dust in our little flood). Anyhow, the girls were sooooooo excited yesterday putting our tree up! LOL. As you can see its not quite as tall as Frankie. Anyhow, when Bee got up this morning, the very first thing she asked me was “did santa come last night?” I guess I didnt really explain well that just because we got the tree doesnt mean its quite christmas yet.

>We had forecast for rain but then we got snow! So, i happened to have the camera in my coat pocket from our trip to the playground yesterday and decided to film my ride home. it was an amazingly beautiful snowfall. not too cold out- about 30F, so it was a nice light chunky snow. Now, my butt got a bit wet from the slush in the streets, but I didnt capture that on film so you are safe! I hope you enjoy the snow as much as I did this afternoon!

I just learned how to post a blog entry from my email…. so I am writing this from my koompa.net account! So, this is really just a test!! Did it work? Did the picture work, too? Did the subject line work?

As you might guess we are into dark chocolate these days….

She is soundly sleeping on the couch. this is after chasing a squirrel all around the snow and then rolling in the snow. that doggie sure knows how to love life! I love that dog! and lets not forget about marker bark, taking it all in on the snowy deck!

>she’s gone in the potty three times today! Whooo hooo!! Ok, so in other news, we couldnt decorate the house today for christmas like we planned because yesterday I learned that if you have a flood in your basement you should probably also clean out the floor level cabinets because they probably flood too. so, there went a sleeping bag and our christmas decorations. they are moldy and smelly now as we didnt realize they were sitting there hidden and wet. But the good news is that our stocking were upstairs and we had just gotten some new chili pepper lights that were already hanging up! So, if we can brave the shoppers this weekend we may go out to get some new lights and what not. Stay tuned, we are making a cake this afternoon, and if it turns out we will take a picture for your viewing entertainment!

I just thought these were cute pics. Oh and by the way, scott’s rule rocks. We got I would say about 1.5 inches of snow. Like our little snowman?

>I just looked up the weather. Its raining now, but here is the forecast for tonight:

Tonight
Brisk..Snow after midnight. Snow accumulation 2 to 4 inches. Northeast winds 15 to 25 mph. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent.

How fun! But, Im not really ready for it. We havent raked up our leaves yet! OK, we will see if we really get the 2-4 inches. If scott’s rule applies, then that means we will get 1-2″ max. Good thing we bought new snow pants at Target last weekend. Bee’s been wearing hers around the house everyday, practicing just for this moment, I guess!
