Christmas Comes Early!

During their last visit back in October, Christopher's parents generously gave us our Christmas present early - a brand new snowblower! Last year Christopher was out of commission for about a week after injuring his back shoveling snow. He even slept on the living room floor one night! This year, being pregnant I wouldn't be able to help out so the snowblower really was a great gift.

This morning it was like Christmas at our house :)

We are still recovering from our jet lag, so both Christopher and I were wide awake and out of bed at 5:45am this morning - not normal for us at all! And this morning we were greeted by a healthy snowfall which had accumulated over the early hours.

Like a kid on Christmas morning Christopher was eagerly awaiting a decent hour before he could open his gift - in this case fire up the brand-new snowblower. He sat by the window and anxiously awaited signs of the first neighbor outside with their snowblower and then quickly dressed to join in the fun!
