Saturday Snow

Saturday morning we woke up to a beautiful field of snow! Angela was very excited to see the snow (especially after we heard it snowed in Dallas during the Cowboys game)! This was the view off of our back porch. We had a relaxing morning. We ate cinnamon rolls, sipped on coffee, and played with Brody. When Brody went down for his nap, I convinced everyone that it would be fun to put up our Christmas decorations! It goes a lot faster when there are 3 extra people helping! Of course, we had to rearrange the living room (even moving the entertainment center...that was Mike's job)...but it was worth it! Here's Nancy, Mark, & Angela separating branches for the tree.

Staci, Brody, Mike, Angela, & Mark in front of the tree. (Don't worry...I'll take better pictures of the Christmas decorations later).
Saturday night we went over to Grandma K's house for dinner. When we got there, Grandpa gave Brody a toolbox with a few tools in it. He was soooo excited when he saw the screwdrivers! He played with the toolbox the entire time we were there! He didn't even want to sit at the table and eat because he wanted to play with the tools!
Angela was kind enough to teach Brody how to climb on top of the tool box...and then jump off. (Thanks Angela! lol)
After dinner we watched the movie ELF until it was time for the KU football game. We stayed thru the 1st quarter...then we had to get Brody home. He was worn out and was asleep before we even got out of town!
This has been such a fun week with family. I'm sad that it had to come to an end!

I am happy that you had such a wonderful Thanksgiving with all of Mike's family. It is so good when families can get together . I know Brody was the center of attention. I was glad to get to spend some time with Nancy.

What a beautiful snowy morning! The snow in Dallas did not look like that - none of it stuck on the ground - just big flakes.

I can't believe Mike moved the entertainment center for the Christmas tree. What a big job! Ours is staying right where it is this Christmas. Right Joan?!?

I'm glad you had such a wonderful time with the family putting up the decorations. Merry Christmas!
