Winter Wonderland

We have now officially entered the month of December, and with that... a whole lotta SNOW. We went from a very nice and warm fall... or what they call an "indian summer" to Winter. Our first snow fall was on the eve of Thanksgiving. Since then we receive 6 inches on Saturday and are getting 5 more or around there, tonight. I can finally hear the snow plows out now. However, despite the extreme cold and snow, we still like to have fun. Jon took us sledding. The kids had a blast, even though Jon did run the tube over some branches and popped it :( We still need to get a slick bottom sled, but we are still beginners at the whole snow thing. Another thing we did recently, was go to a tree farm and cut down our own christmas tree. It was lots of fun, even though the tree fell on top of Matthew. They had Santa Claus there, and tons of fudge.. even a reindeer. Right now it is snowing and 27 degrees .
