I'm dreaming of a.....

White Christmas! ;) I always hope for one, especially since we ALWAYS had one when I was growing up and we spent our Christmases in PA with family. But the reality is- it RARELY ever happens in VA, especially in Richmond! Well, our wishes were answered this past weekend. We ended up with 11-12 inches of the beautiful white stuff from a nor'easter. This is actually the second big storm we have had here this year- super shocker!It is still here since it has been really cold still this week so at least we will get to wake up tomorrow morning and see the pretty scenery.

Lucas and Todd did get out for some playtime in the winter wonderland twice over the weekend. I missed the actual first reaction and play session since I was confined upstairs. I did catch them with the camera on Sunday! He seemed to really like the snow and playing in it with the exception of getting stuck since it was so deep! It came up to his knees if he happened to fall through it-there are downfalls to this much snow with toddlers. Poor guy ;) He spent most of his time Sunday "helping" daddy shovel snow and entertaining Bailey with snowballs. We always love to see the pups (RIP Hunter) play in the snow, they instantly turn into puppies again! This was no exception for Bailey, from the minute the flakes started falling Friday night she was so excited and begged to go outside every 30 minutes ;)

I guess I should mention that we were slackers in the Christmas card dept. We took a family shot a few weeks ago but I also knew that I wanted to send birth announcements for the girls in a few short weeks. So I decided to forgo the holiday card this year and opted for a "full family" greeting that should be arriving in a month or so! We do love you all though and hope to see you soon!!!

We hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and be safe if you are traveling!
