Snow Days & Aubrie is Getting a Brother











We are all shocked by the news of.... our new family addition will be a boy! Luckily I was able to make it to the hospital for that appointment, but church, work, school, pretty much everything else has been cancelled or postponed around here for the last few weeks. We have had one snow storm after another. I know I made fun of Philly in December for freaking out over snow, but even us local Utahn's must admit these latest storms have been BAD. In one night and a day we got 28 inches of snow, and it was a TOTAL blizzard outside. The average time of digging out your car here was 1 1/2 hours. The main problem is there is no where to put the snow. Plows sometimes come through and push the snow into parking spots, which has created fights over spots, nasty notes for taking people spots, and my personal favorite- saving your spot with a table or chair. (We laughed at first, but of course joined in). Here are some pictures of playing in the snow and my favorite part- the hot chocolate after!

Congratulations on the new addition being a boy. I hope Brent is enjoying school. I can't believe we have been done with Utah for almost 2 years. Time has flown by fast.

Boys are fun! I hope you had some food storage for those storms. You know what is funny, we have had hardly any measurable snow at our house.

Congrats on the little boy. That will be so fun! Aubrie is going to go crazy over him, I can just tell.

Oh, parking in Philly. We had people cussing us out for moving their chair and taking their parking spot, and that was in the middle of the summer!

Glad you guys are doing well. We miss you!
