We woke up Christmas morning to a nice blanket of snow on the ground. There is just something magical about a white Christmas. The weather man said that there have only been 13 white Christmas's since they started keeping track in 1888. We average one every 10 years.
We had a really nice relaxing day. We woke up, loaded all the presents into the van and headed over to my folks house which is about five miles away. The snow plows had cleared the roads mostly which is great because some of the snow drifts were several feet high. One part of the dirt road had piles along each side that were as tall as the van. It was impressive.
We got several pictures of the grandchildren in front of the tree. Only two turned out half way presentable with the babies not screaming. Wesley looks like such a little man in his Christmas shirt and sweater vest.
I had fun shopping for the kids dress clothes on eBay. Greta's dress was a whopping 3.99 and Wesley's shirt and vest was .99 cents. Gotta love eBay!
Wesley and Greta made out like bandits. Wesley will have new toys to keep him busy for many months, hopefully long enough to get him through the long cold indoor months coming up.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas wherever you are!
