Playing in the Snow with Sarah





Sarah and I had a great time playing in the snow today. We tried our hardest to find a sled and there isn't one sled left in this town! We ordered one and we hope it gets here tomorrow before the snow melts. It's so fun to see how excited Sarah gets about the snow! We'll be praying for lots of snow to come while she's visiting.

14 inches of snow and still coming down!






I had a little boy wake me up this morning screaming, SNOW, SNOW, and more SNOW mommy!
It's been snowing since last night and it's still coming down. We've had another great day of
playing in the snow and it looks like Sarah will get to have a white Christmas too. Scott is stuck
on a plane somewhere and we sure miss him. It seems like he's been gone for most of the month.
Shoveling all of this snow without his help was a bit challenging. Luke and I managed to get it done
in 3 hours and we were playing most of the time. It reminded me of all of my own childhood snow days!

Let it Snow! Let it Snow!



Luke had his first experience with snow and he loved it! In the orphanage, he must not have been able to touch it or play with it. It was as if he had never seen it before. From the minute he woke up, we were all out playing in it and watching it come down. The snowman we built was so heavy that we had to get Scott out of the warm, cozy house to help us. All of us enjoyed a little snowball fight too! It's always such a joy to see how happy Luke is. Hopefully we can have some more snow when Sarah comes!
