ops...



The last post I posted was "Let it snow..everywhere but here..." This morning I woke up and was sitting in the chair feeding Archer in his room when suddenly I realized there was SNOW COVERING THE GROUND AND REALLY FALLING FROM THE SKY! I yelled for Colin really loud and he came running. We were SHOCKED! It felt like "real snow" and like being in the north again. Colin has lived in Louisiana for 11 years and this has never happened. It was so exciting that we quickly got out the video recorder and filmed this bit of history. Archer was sort of interested, but as with anything you put before a 12 week old...it quickly becomes uninteresting. In the meantime Colin got a call from work saying that they were closed for the day. All of the schools were closed too (they do not have the equipment down here to deal with snow).

Needless to say, IT'S AWESOME! We quickly settled in and finished making ornaments and hanging them on the tree. Right now Archer is napping and Colin ventured out to get ingredient to bake cookies. We had our friend Jp and Lauren over last night to make ornaments and tonight we are having them over for cookie decorating (Archer needs to grow up...quick).

I suppose I should mention now that the snow was very short lived. It last a couple of hours and then the rain started and now it is almost all gone, but it still felt so nice to have at least one wintery day.

Hope all is well with everyone!

Love the Kimbles.
