The Weather Outside is Frightful...

...finally!!

We're smack dab in the middle of our first snow of the season, and it's a doozy.

We couldn't even get the car up the driveway after church today. The Husband needs to fire up the snowblower, but first he says he has to wait until the Vikings game is over the snow stops.

As much as I love the milder winters, I have to say that global warming definitely cramps my Christmas style. Finally the outside matches the inside.

(I don't remember hippos watching over baby Jesus in the stable. But we'll go with it.)

Like all the best snow days, this one includes no real need to go anywhere, so we can just hunker down and eat soup and read and drink apple cider and watch football and bring dry clothes to soaking children. Since we've no place to go....
