It Is Looking Like A White Christmas

It began snowing around 10PM last night (Friday). Now, at 8:45PM (Saturday) it is still snowing.
We probably have around 15 inches now.




We were expecting this snow storm so last night I made sure we had the essentials: bread, milk, movies and library books.
Lin-Ley is now reading the Magic Tree House series. I brought home six new books. They are around 120 pages each. She is currently on the third book.


We let Lin-Ley sleep-in this morning. I finally went in to check on her and found her lounging in the bed reading.






Then at breakfast....







Before lunch....




After nap/quiet time it was time to go tackle the snow. Dallas geared up with the shovel and made his way out to the shed. The snow blower had not been used in close to two years so we had our fingers crossed.


Rocket is almost covered.



Dallas' car.



The kids were bundled up and stepped onto the front porch. The light, fluffy snow was blowing and they both got a face full. That was almost enough for Tru and he was ready to go back inside.



Lin-Ley jumped right in (literally). She began making snow angels and got her pants soaking wet.





Dallas finally got the snow blower started and began with the driveway. He called Lin-Ley over to the fence.





Lin-Ley went right over as Dallas was turning around the snow blower. Bad Daddy! He started the machine again and it blew the snow right onto Lin-Ley.


I hope he knows that eventually she is going to pay him back for all of these little tricks!



Tru enjoyed the snow very much!

The kids were wet and they needed to come in after only around 10 minutes outside. Lin-Ley was wet and covered with snow (thanks to Dad). She was more than ready to go inside but Tru refused. However, once I got him inside he was crying because his little hands were so red and cold.



Dallas resorted to the leaf blower to help clean off the deck.







Dallas handed Lin-Ley an icecicle from the deck.





It is supposed to snow through the night!

Due to the weather our church will be closed tomorrow and Chinese School has been canceled. Hopefully we can make it out to see Santa tomorrow. And hopefully Santa will be there!
