Is January over yet? It has been a long and gloomy month. It would be nice just to see the sun for a day. :) We haven't been up to much which is why I haven't posted for awhile. The biggest news of the month is SNOW! The week that the kids went back to school we had a big snow storm and ended up having school cancelled on Friday the 11th. It is the first snow day in many, many years, so it was lots of fun! We ended up getting about 14 inches out of the storm. Nate was out-of-town until that Friday evening so I was stuck with all the shoveling. Luckily I went out Thursday night and did some of it, so Friday morning wasn't too bad. We had a great time spending the day in the snow. We made tunnels and snow-caves and walked down to our church to sled a little. The next day we went to a favorite sledding hill, but didn't stay very long because of cold, grumpy kids. Nate and I could have stayed and went sledding for hours! :) A strange thing occurred this week, we had freezing rain. Our sidewalks and driveway quickly became an ice rink. It was a crazy day with people sliding all over the place on the roads and sidewalks. Let's hope February isn't as gloomy!!
My two days of shoveling done!

Sledding. You can see how happy Ashlyn was to be there.

That looks a lot like our January...which stinks because I love that Boise is usually not like that. We even had the freezing rain. It was crazy. Glad you had a good time in the snow!
