Back track to the holidays, starting with Fun in the Snow!

I have not had a truly white Christmas in a while. This year it started snowing in Nebraska a week or so leading up to the holidays. And, of course, there was even more of it in Minnesota where we spent our Christmas. Corban has seen snow before, but this was his first real experience with it out of the infancy stage. When he woke up and saw it out the window he said, "I want to touch it." I couldn't convince him that it would be too cold in his pajamas, so I just slid the deck door open and let him scoop some up. He enjoyed touching, tasting, and later playing in it with papa (Bryan).

Tasting the Snow .. . .Yum!
































And no snow day is complete without hot cocoa! Corban loves hot chocolate so much I got him his own container of it for his stocking. Now when people ask him what he got for Christmas he says, "Santa brought me hot cocoa." ---not a tool set, not an easel, not a karaoke machine .. . . hot cocoa. :-)
