les vacances de Noël a commencé!

It’s true – Christmas vacation started this morning.

It’s only the first day – but here’s how it started at our house:

the temperature dropped overnight and the rain turned to snow early this morning – so our first snow of the year was the morning of the first day of holidays.
there were two dear eating at the snow-covered grass in the yard – the first deer we’ve seen in a long time
we had a huge breakfast together as a family
as soon as we were done – the kids were outside in the snow – and stayed out until they were too wet and tired to play anymore
little Alma was just lying around ‘talking’ more than she ever has

The forecast is for more cool temperatures and more precipitation over the next few days – so hopefully not too much of this will melt – and they’ll be some more. Which is good because much of our snow has been sledded into the ground or rolled up into a ball.
