Snow Day

We had Will's first snow last night. Its pretty much just a light dusting here, but the temps are so cold (wind chill below freezing!) that everything is iced over. So, Will and I are taking a snow day. We've spent most of the morning snuggling, but we also enjoyed looking out the window at some snow on the patio. We moved our Christmas tree out there last night, and now its like a white Christmas a few weeks late!

I celebrated my birthday earlier this week, and I was reminded of something my dad used to tell us when we were young. Whenever his birthday or Christmas was near, we'd ask him what gifts he wanted. Usually he'd make a joke about something gross or outrageous, but every time, without fail, he'd tell us the same thing. "You girls are my gifts."

We always thought that was some sort of cop-out answer. It wasn't until this birthday that I realized exactly what he meant.

Here's a picture of MY gift:
