It started snowing last night around midnight. When I woke up this morning we had about an inch or so of snow. Its now 3:35pm and we have about 7 inches of snow with more predicted for the coming week. The roads are slick and they are asking you not to go out unless you have to. This is the most snow that we have had for a long time. I love it when there is snow on Christmas Day. Makes if feel more like Christmas to me. I will be spendind Christmas with Dale, Nicki, Josh and Drake. I am more in the Christmas spirit now. My shopping is done. I just have to wrap the gifts. My cards are sent out. I still have to do the baking, which Dale is going to help me with next week. We always have fun when we cook together.
My Christmas dinner is planned and I have most of the things I need for it. Just have to get a few last minute fruit and veggies. Even if I have to walk to the store in the snow I will be getthing those last minute items Monday or Tuesday.
Seeing all the snow today and hearing the kids in the neighborhood out playing brought back happy childhood memories. Memories of snowball fights with Momma and the other kids in our neighborhood, sledding, and the giving of fruit baskets to shutins while on a hay ride during the holidays with our church youth group. Then coming back to our house for cookies and hot chocolate. Those were the days.
Until next time, may your day be filled with peace love and happiness, in your own little piece of the world.
