Christmas time

So it has been a busy few weeks. Here we are getting our Christmas tree. It was a beautiful day, not rainy at all which was great. The kids got a little frustrated that it took us a while to pick the tree we wanted but we finally found the perfect one.

Guess who forgot there was a tree on top of the car before driving into the garage? (He's not so pleased I took a picture so I imagine he doesn't like me posting it, but I thought it was funny).

Here we are decorating it.

Weatherwise, this week has been crazy for us here in the Portland area. We don't often get snow. This is from Sunday's snow. It wasn't the best snow but it was the first snow of the season. It snowed, then rained, then snowed and everything froze over. Needless to say no school Monday or Tuesday.

Then here comes Wednesday with more snow. It snowed all day today. Enough to make a snowman. The kids' first one.

We are supposed to get more snow in the morning and then another storm on Sunday. CA is getting a 3 week winter break instead of 2 b/c of all of this. He doesn't seem to be minding missing school but I'm afraid we are all going a little stir crazy.
