75 degrees yesterday...and today, snow

I don't like snow. It's no secret. But if it's gonna be this dang cold, it might as well snow so that things get shut down and we can stay inside!

Yes, when it snows here, they close everything down. Maris and I were trying to find antler's for Aliza's program tonight. We went into a store and came out to a Winter Wonderland.


Yuck.

Cool! Why didn't we see any of that!? :)

Snow bites, but I wanted to say that I really like Maris' shoes. He was sticking his foot out in the aisle at church during sacrament meeting and I decided I liked them then. I need to buy some for Gary. :D

Did your district cancel school today? First ours was delayed and now cancelled. Now what?

I heard the temperature had drastically dropped. In my room, though, under all my warm blankets, it's still a toasty 70 degrees! Stay warm!

We actually had our air conditioner on Sunday night and now I am freezing! My husband's team at work have planned to ride the carriages around HP tonight, which sounded so fun a few weeks ago. Now I'm thinking the lights will be just as pretty from the warm car.

yuck is right. but, look how lucky you are to be spending your holidays with that handsome hubby of yours. ;) snow and all.

Whoa...75 degrees one day and snow the next...that is pretty jarring! It does look pretty, though.

I freakin LOVE the snow and the cold weather we've been getting!!!! It makes it so much more 'Christmas' feeling. One thing that is funny...they shut the schools down and there wasn't even more then a DUSTING on the ground! My Denver gf's and I laughed for like 10 minutes about that. Growing up, we'd have blizzards, with FEET of snow and still have to go to school (the super intendent of the school district was from ALASKA so every storm was mild to him). The only down side to this cold is that most people here don't have a CLUE how to drive in icey/snowy weather, and that makes it dangerous for people like me, who do know :).

"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

-Audrey Hepburn

"I am one of [Jesus Christ's] witnesses, and in a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But I shall not know any better then than I know now that he is God's Almighty Son, that he is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his atoning blood and in no other way."--Bruce R. McConkie, "The Purifying Power of Gethsemane"

"...we must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope. Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible. The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant... But we must be cautious as we discuss these remarkable examples. Though they are real and powerful, they are the exception more than the rule. For every Paul, for every Enos, and for every King Lamoni, there are hundreds and thousands of people who find the process of repentance much more subtle, much more imperceptible. Day by day they move closer to the Lord, little realizing they are building a godlike life. They live quiet lives of goodness, service, and commitment. They are like the Lamanites, who the Lord said "were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost, and theyknew it not." (3 Ne. 9:20; italics added.)"--Ezra Taft Benson, "A Mighty Changeof Heart"
