A little something…

Snow chunks falling from the sky. December 29, 2008

We woke up this morning – and according to Phil it was chunks of snow falling from the sky not snowflakes — the truly were HUGE!!!

Lets recap a bit on a funny story — On Christmas eve, we came home from a wonderful service – Shannon and I were beautifully dressed… in dresses I might add. Anyway, we get home from the service, and decide to throw some snowballs at each other, which then turns to an attempt to give each other a facewash. So here we are standing on the edge of the front porch, scrambling to pick up snow and get each other… Phil sees this as an opportunity to run down the stairs and PUSH us into the snow — literally. We tumbled down the snow cover (deep snow, so it wasn’t dangerous) steps into the front yard, we managed to switch sides of which we started, and well the snow was EVERYWHERE (again we were in dresses) Phil was very proud of his achievement but little did he know we would not forget.

Today when saying good bye to some friends outside – Shannon and I attacked Phil (with 2 of us it is much easier). We carried him outside, gave him a huge facewash… but just then – he flips Shannon into the snow pile and they go at it…. snow fight for sure. I managed to slip away just quick enough to grab the camera and capture a few fine moments. It sure is a good example of brother-sister love between these 2…. this and gaming.

My joke lately – people say your marry someone like your mom/dad… well I married my someone just like my sister. Good thing I like her so much!

Here’s some pictures of the adventures…
