Sorry for the blog hiatus. It's always so hard to keep up at this time of year, seems even tougher this year since we want to spend every free minute we get with Brucie.
But we had to write to let everyone know that we survived Snowpocalypse 2009! Between late Friday night and late Saturday night, we received between 16 and 20 inches of snow in our area and we are still shoveling our way out. Now, I have very little perspective on such matters, but even Robb admitted that this was the most snow he had seen fall in a 24 hour period. Thank goodness it happened over the weekend so we could watch the lovely white fluffies fall throughout the day and cover all the cars, trees, and everything outside without needing to commute to work. Unfortunately we did miss out on the Kings Holiday party and Christmon decorating at Church, but hope to see you all soon after the holidays.
Bruce's first snowfall was actually a couple weeks back, on Saturday, December 5th. A few pictures from his first adventure with snow are below too. This time Bruce stayed warm inside with Mama, while Dada went out to shovel the snow. It took 3+ hours to get the cars out. But what was nice was that all the neighbors got out around the same time and helped each other shovel the common areas. It was neat to watch everyone working together. And Robb really got a workout (he even wore is weight belt for support, thanks Uncle Darrel for the advice!). Duke was not a fan of the white fluffy stuff, but he made his way through to do his business. When you gotta go, you gotta go.
Enjoy the pictures of our Winter Wonderland below!
