SNOW IN St. George!!

December 17 we woke up to a "blanket of snow" They closed the schools and even canceled the evening band concert. We got about 3" of snow overnight and to St. George (who has no way to scrap roads-even though to us who grew up in snow it is normal and snow plows usually don't worry about 3" anyway) it was a big deal. The kids built a snowman on our lawn, 4 snowmen and 2 "snow chairs" for one neighbor and 3 snowmen for another neighbor. It was lots of fun and we had a white week-before-Christmas.

Zack drew a picture for the reflections contest at school. The theme was "wow" and he did a "hidden picture" There are 5 "wow"s inside the picture that he drew and colored. Very fun.

Brittany's Birthday 2008

Brittany turned 10 in November. For her Birthday we gave her "riding lessons" A friend agreed to teach about and let her ride horses for a few hours. She absolutely loved it. Now one of her "new year's goals" is to ride horses again. She also got a "hair straitener" --which she loves so she doesn't have curly hair all the time.
