December 11

Today's advent activity got messed up! Today was the ward Christmas party, which I conveniently used as the activity, and it was cancelled due to the enormous amount of snow we got today. It literally snowed all day long. The first time Brad went out to shovel, there was 12 inches. I went out a couple hours later, and it was about 4 inches. Brad went out a couple hours after that and it was more. Soooo, no ward party. Unsafe driving conditions and all that.



Brad and the snowdrift. It's only mid-December. They're almost 6 feet tall.



Instead of a ward party, we had our own with these folks. Anyone else LOVE the Muppet Christmas Carol? We do. So does Marley. And Marley.



On an unrelated note, Brad has been growing out his facial hair. He had a beard going, longer and fuller than he's ever had, and I didn't think to take a picture of it. Until he shaved it off. But he left a sweet mexi-stash. (Is that PC? NO.) And chops.



Would you give this guy all your money?



The latest news? Church has been cancelled tomorrow. That means that with our upcoming trip, no nursery for 3 (THREE!) weeks! There are no words.
