Need Me 4-Wheel Drive





School was cancelled today due to the monstrous piles of snow we've received in the last couple of days. This was the last day of school before Christmas break so it's really not like they were going to miss anything educational. However,  I was a little bummed because I spent a lot of time calling around scheduling refreshments and decor for Mitch and Ethan's class singing program and it was all for naught. Plus they were disappointed to not get to do the program they've been practicing for weeks. But all the snow playtime and the relaxed indoor time has made up for it. Plus it's nice to see all the neighborhood come out and help shovel snow and dig each other out.
As far as interesting life tidbits....Hub was at a pet hospital helping with their employee benefits and a lady came in the waiting room with an injured hand and an injured cat. Apparently there was an aggressive dog issue. Anyway, she saw Hub in his business attire, knew she was in UT county and asked if he would give her cat a blessing. And he did. Should this story make me laugh? It did. Hub insisted it wasn't as weird as it sounds.....

You're kidding about the cat, right? That is too funny. What did he say in the blessing?

noelle looks awesome in that wig.

I'm glad that he didn't find it odd... because I'm sure I would have been snickering just a tad...

your snowy pictures are making me love our rain more and more - although not enough that I won't be happy when it stops for awhile!

I can't stop laughing about the cat. should it be so funny? I am not sure.. It was probably a really sweet and tender moment.

Love the wig!

Really??? Even for Utah County the cat thing is a little... umm looking for the right word!
Have I ever mentioned how stinkin cute your kids are? Well the are! We had a ton of snow up here too but they still made us go to school :(

Hope you guys have a great Christmas!

School was cancelled for us too! And that means no year-round golfing brag rights for BD.

Glad Leon has found his special calling in life. Love that story!

Ha! I am looking forward to telling Der about that one. The snow was an unexpected adventure and now here comes the rain!

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
