We got our first snow. It seems that seasons in St. Louis are all about extremes. In the summer, it is extremely hot. In the winter, extremely cold. When it rains, it pours; and when it snows, it dumps. We got a reported 8 inches out this way requiring us to shovel mass amounts of snow off our driveway 2 days in a row....something I wasn't really looking forward to. It didn't end up being so bad after all. My mom and I were able to spend some time together, and we really enjoyed watching Gus frolic in the snow. At first, the snow confuses him, but the he becomes accustomed to it. He runs, leaps, and attacks it....quite funny if you ask me. The kids were loving the perfect sledding weather and I started to reminisce of the days when I threw on my snow gear and joined all of my neighborhood friends in the fun. Although the snow was beautiful, it did have one downside. The roads became pretty horrible in some places, but I was very proud of Betty (my car for those of you who weren't aware of her name). She handled it like a pro!
I am really starting to look forward to the holidays, although I haven't found time to buy a single present. I guess I will be taking care of that this week. Then its ONE WEEK PAID VACATION!! Oh how I love my job!
Happy holidays to all.
