We had a MUCH needed snow day today.\u00a0 Hallelujah!\u00a0 While I mostly wanted to cuddle on the couch and read the paper all day, it ended up being a neighbor-riffic day and that was ok too because I love my neighborhood. Today a kind neighbor had my driveway shovelled so I wouldn’t have to do the heavy lifting while still healing; another neighbor made me fresh baked bread; the kids had friends over all day and we baked cookies, sang songs, and danced for hours; the girls delivered cookies to the neighbors up and down the street; Arlo found a sunny place to nap in front of the window on top of his crate!, and when I went outside in the dark and cold to walk him tonight I was greeted by a dazzling array of holiday lights. My neighborhood is beautiful and generous and kind. Life is good and the proof is in the photos!\u00a0 (because we don’t take photos of the headachy obnoxious parts of life! :) )<\/p>\n

Very carefully decorating sugar cookies with beautiful sprinkles and edible glitter.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>

Beautiful and delicious!<\/p><\/div>\n

Boy were we surprised to walk into the living room and find Arlo sitting ON TOP of his crate! He seemed quite content and by the time I came back with my camera he had settled in for a rest. He had direct sunlight and a great view of the world… well, the street anyway. :)<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>

The girls made sugar cookies while the boys played on the Xbox, then the boys made Peanut Butter Blossoms while the girls delivered cookies and took their turn on the Xbox. I spent the entire day in the kitchen supervising the efforts!<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>

Tired boys. Arlo was so calm and let Lex lay on him for awhile. Very unusual!<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>

I can’t decide which picture I like better, so you get to see them both! :)<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>

Got cookies?! We do!<\/p><\/div>\n
