A "snowtastic" weekend!

I think in the future I should keep in mind that all Andy needs as a birthday/anniversary/Christmas gift is a BIG snow storm in December! He was beyond giddy at the prospect of lots of snow and when the storm came to fruition he was even more excited announcing at the breakfast table things like, "we are going to have SNOOOOW much fun today," and "this is SNOWTASTIC!"

Well, in fact we did have a "snowtastic" weekend! We started off with some early morning Christmas shopping as our new car allows us to truck through 15" of snow with ease! It was great being practically the only ones at the stores the Saturday before Christmas!

We also got to let Liddy run rampant in the snow banks. We almost lost her a few times, but she always managed to dig her way out! :) She had a blast and is officially zonked!





We also did a lot of baking and equaled that out by testing out the new Wii Fit Plus that I got Andy for his birthday. I have a feeling this new toy will provide lots of laughs (and hopefully some good workouts) as I am still reeling from watching Andy hula hoop, without a a hula hoop!

Today we did some more shopping and even managed a few good deeds, of which Andy gets full credit! He helped two different families get their cars "un-stuck" and also shoveled Greg and Erica's driveway as they are heading home from a long weekend in Hilton Head.

A great weekend with more great days to come as the government has announced its closure for tomorrow, so let this "SNOW FUN" weekend continue! :)
