Snow, Snow & more Snow !















We have had quite a week of very cold temperatures and lots of snow! It all started a week ago and it came and went for a couple days, but it was very cold.  The later in the week it got, the colder it became, and the more the snow was falling. 
















Earlier in the week we bundled up and went outside with Siena and let her check it out. She thought it was funny. She just kept smiling and laughing as it was snowing.  We made a snowball out of the powdery snow and let her hold it. She thought it was great. All she wanted to do was eat the snow, she held on to that snowball for as long as we were out there. Eventually it was getting too cold and we came inside. 







 Yesterday it snowed all day long, with lots of cold wind. When we woke up this morning, there was more snow (now totaling about 18 inches) with a big layer of ice covering everything because of the freezing rain in the middle of the night. It was very pretty, but we were definitely home bound today. Not sure if it will stick around to have a white Christmas

Hi Emily and Mitch, it is J.R. and Lana! We were so happy to get your Christmas card, and it was so exciting to get your blog address. It will be so fun to keep up on you. Siena has grown so much! She is one already!!! She looked so adorable on Halloween and all the other pictures. What a beauty! Anyway, we love you guys so much. We didn't send out cards this year, but you were in our thoughts! Can't wait to talk more. Happy New Year!
