January

 We had an epic snowstorm a couple of weeks ago.  I think we got 20 inches!  It was such a nice weekend to just stay home.  Matt's patients cancelled, church was cancelled, and we just stayed home for three days!  It was glorious!  The kids took advantage of the snow in our yard, and then the big kids took advantage of the snow on the ski slopes a few days later, but those jerks didn't take any pictures!  Here are the ones from our house, at least!

Also, Matt and Merrody had a daddy-daughter date the other night.  They had so much fun at a paint class, where they learned to paint the New River Gorge.  They loved it!

...and Jack and Matt slept in the snow at the Boy Scout's Klondike Derby (Joel went, but came home before bedtime).  I guess they had  a good time!
