When it snows, it really snows. We got 11 inches in two days!! Da boys went out and played for a while as the snow came down. We went sledding at Kincaid Park and will be going back tonight for Family Night. Woo-hoo! I love Alaska! I asked some friends if it will stay like this. They said that if it doesn't get too warm (30 degrees), the snow will stay pretty until Feb. In March things get real slushy during "BreakUp". Today is definitely a homemade chili day...and all the Christmas decorations are going up. We can't decide how to handle the Christmas tree predicament though--do we buy fake or go chop our own? We're only decorating the top because Caleb will have a hayday trying to tear it apart otherwise. I'm undecided and Cannon's vote is for a real one. It seems like a lot of work since we'll only decorate the top--but when was the last time a person could just go out and chop a tree down for Christmas?

I say go cut one down!!! We did that the first couple years and loved the experience but with his work schedule in December, we ended up buying a fake on last year. :( We both miss the hike/cut/haul out experience!
