Who's says you can't have fun in winter???









So (as you know) I'm from good ol SUNNY South Africa. I get pretty miserable every time it snows. Well thanks to my husband, I am gaining more of an appreciation for our winter wonderland. I'm actually looking forward to a white christmas.
We went sledding today. Katie was so brave...she loves going down the hill ALL by herself! She's AMAZING! Sharon's a little more hesitant in the snow (she takes after her mom;)
Katie just crashed in the car...she was so tired.
After sledding we went to temple square to see the Christmas lights...it was BEAUTIFUL but so cold.

Melissa you are so gorgeous, and Katie is so adorable in the picture sleeping. What a wonderful family you have!

Oh how fun. We'll probably end up doing some sledding this next week with all this snow. I love playing in it I just hate driving in it.

Thanks for your sweet comment about my cooking. I don't actually think I am that great but I do my best.

I have lived here all of my life, and I still don't like the snow. Your family makes it look super fun, though. Maybe I need a different perspective. Merry Christmas!
