Snow



Our area has seen a ton of snow this year. It is actually pretty rare for Kansas City to see this kind of snow. I like it (except when it melts-see previous post) because it reminds me of home. But the last few storms came with bitter cold temperatures that kept us from going out and enjoying it. This weekend, we finally got snow with decent temps.
So Sunday, we bundled Mia up and gave her the chance to experience her first snow.


Of course, the first thing she did was try to eat it but quickly figured out how untastey (is that a word?) that was.

The excursion didn't last long. She really didn't quite know what to do with herself. And the thick bundling didn't lend well to moving around. She tried to crawl around, but got snow in her boot and she made it clear to us she wanted to go back inside.


I have to say, it was nice to get outside for a bit. It has been too long.

The upside to country living....

The downside of country living....

Christmas Review in Pictures


First up, the Schnelle Christmas. Like Thanksgiving, things were tough without Rick, but we smiled, laughed, and had a great time together. Of course, the food is always the BEST! Mia LOVED all her new toys and enjoyed opening the presents.
(my favorite pic. Thanks Josh!)


Christmas Eve dinner back at home. Appetizer Delight.

Daddy's girls on Christmas Day.

Snyder Christmas...three days late.

We just came in from a 12 hour drive and Mia still had it in her to open more presents.

Uncle Phil... (just wait until she is old enough to play video games....ooooooooh)
She is really getting the hang of this present thing...
