Snow Day

Some of you have heard me complain about the Hoosier snowdays, two hour delays, etc., so I won't do too much more whining here. However, suffice it to say that the folks in Wisconsin and Illinois public schools systems seem to be a bit tougher re: school in the snow. Our first snow day of the winter was today. The kids weren't all that excited to go out until neighbors invited them sledding. Of course, I don't have pics of THAT - that would involve getting cold.

We (OK - Monte) did finish the outdoor lighting and the wreath-hanging. I think it looks smashing - a little Colonial. For those of you who won't travel to see us this season, here it is - along with Claire in full winter regalia.

Oh - I got my first Christmas cards in the mail today - all from Wisconsinites. They beat me every year. I am starting on ours tonight after Cookie Training. Yes, we indeed need to be trained in order to ensure your best possible purchase experience from the Girl Scouts when cookie season hits (in January). I will be counting on you!
