Snow-ville, USA (not really, but you gotta love a town that shuts down for a few inches!)


We made a snowman who the kid's named Frosty (so surprising!) this morning and then Mike lead us on a "snow hike" through the woods behind our house...I got some last min shopping done during naptime (I'm better under pressure I think!) and then we divided up our cookies from the exchange and started delivering them to the B&As and their families and the neighbors on either side of us...Mike made 2 more batches yesterday while I was sledding with M...ginger snaps and chocolate chip cookies! YUM!!! Fun to have so many different types to share! :)

The kids enjoyed taking every toy out of the toy box in Carter's room this afternoon and playing with them...I think watching an old Christmas movie that was a Graham Girl favorite sparked all of this....if you want to impose "toy guilt" for not playing with old toys...this movie will get you....great movie, but it lays it on thick! Read plot here...our kids are going to have all these memories from the 90s that their friends are going to have not a clue about when they talk about movies they grew up with...Their friends won't understand just the way mine didn't about the Hugga Bunch (hahahhaa!) in college...haven't shown them that yet... bit freaky I'll admit...little people coming out of mirrors... :)

The kids hopped in the box after they finished putting all the toys back in and I just had to grab my camera...

We love our little Mal-in-a-box and Carter-in-a-Box! What a fun unexpected Snowcation with Mike! Let the Graham Fam Christmas begin!!! :)
