Winter Wonderland

We were sprinkled with our first snow of the year...


And we are supposed to get more later today. The above picture was taken 2 days ago and I meant to take a pic yesterday when it was gorgeously sunny. We are in for another winter storm today and tomorrow so I hope it brings lots of snow...then the roads get plowed and we can go about our day. I love the snow just not the driving in it part.

I have been a little under the weather, no pun intended, and today I am still coughing. With the snow here my classes had been canceled but today I had to cancel them due to the cough. I so hope I get over this soon as we are planning on leaving on our trip right after Christmas.

Time to make tea and then sleep!

We heard from the kid Twice in one day!

He is doing well. He still has a cold but is surviving that. He wants us to bring Kit-Kat and Twix candy bars when we go for Graduation. We were able to get a hotel on base. Most of the time during graduation week will be base liberty so we can spend more time with him that way. :o) We are looking forward to seeing him and having Christmas with him during Graduation Week.

I think he is a little homesick but other than that he sounds great. We sure do miss him. This was the first year without him finding a Christmas tree and decorating for the holidays. Here is our 1st Christmas Tree without the ds's help.


Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. I am hard at trying to get my candies done and get them in the mail. :o)

Merry Christmas!
