Winter's Coming

So, it snowed last week. It was my cue to go buy new coats, boots, snow pants, etc. The kids were excited and broke out the sleds straight away. We got quite a bit of snow, but it didn't stick, much to their dismay.

I used to hate winter, but I don't mind it at all anymore, at least not until after Christmas. I'm ready for spring by January. But I love the holidays and don't think they'd be as fun without the snow.

We also scored a snowblower this year! Thanks Grandpa H. James couldn't wait to get that puppy going. He busted it out and cleared the driveway lickety split. We'll see how long the enthusiasm lasts. It will definately make life easier. Hopefully, we'll have plenty of snow to blow this year!
