All Snowed In

This is what we came home to Saturday about 11:30am. We left about 10:30 and it was raining. Guess things change quick here!

This was Sunday night from our patio:

Yesterday morning. And look at that lovely snow-covered California car. Poor Corolla...

So, we were supposed to leave yesterday morning for Northern Idaho to spend Thanksgiving with my dad's parents. Due to the weather we decided to wait a day or so, so we found some things to keep us busy in the house!

Check out our jars! Haha. At our ward's Super Saturday a few weeks ago we made the "Date Night"ones, but I took a set of the FHE strips to have for us as well. We'll have an FHE idea and a date idea for every week next year :)

We also finished a Christmas craft I've had the supplies for but hadn't gotten done yet.

We have a Christmas wreath now! I was so excited to get it put together and I like how it turned out. A big thanks to Darren for helping me. I didn't quite have enough hands to get it done myself!

So, back to this snow thing. We're currently under a BLIZZARD warning until 11pm tonight. It's not supposed to stop snowing until sometime tomorrow morning, so we've had to call off our trip to my grandparents. We were dissapointed, but felt much safer staying home. We'll have my brother and his wife down from Rexburg on Thursday, and hopefully things will be ok by then. (They just announced that I-15 is closed from Idaho Falls into Montana, so looks like we made a good choice!)

Anyways, maybe I'm crazy, but I'm excited to do Thanksgiving here! It was fun to go out last night with Darren and get a turkey and all the fixings for a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. My mom emailed me a Thanksgiving story from the Friend that we used to read every year. I remember just laughing and laughing with my brothers and sisters when we would read it. If you've got young ones they might enjoy it! Go here to find it.

I hope you all enjoy your holiday and you'll hear from us again soon!!
