Let It SNOW!!

13 plus inches! Yup, you got it, Richmond finally was hit with some REAL snow! For the first time since the little Surratts have been around and they are LOVING it! Riley, as we discovered last year at the Wintergreen snow park, is a Dare Devil and Loves the hill in our back yard and Kyle has jumped on board this year as well... however that was no surprise since he copies EVERYTHING Ri does right now! In fact, we have forbid Ri from claiming 'not to like' any type of food because when she does, Kyle decides he doesn't like that food either, even when it is his Favorite item!! The kids have had a blast with friends in the neighborhood and Eric and Tracy have as well. The Surratt Pack has checked out from real life and has enjoyed being snowed in:-)

I'm not sure how this many weeks has passed without blogging... I'm going to blame it on the virus that we caught. Not the one that make Riley puke the other night (she was so cautious of vomiting only in the blue puke bowl!) but the virus that our computer caught - it was a week long of cleaning and ultimately reformatting!

In the past month we have had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Bebe's with fabulous friends and of course amazing family, we have had a school thanksgiving celebration that first showed the newly terrifying stage fright that Ri has discovered, many playgroups, the jingle bell jamboree, a couple b-day parties, a couple illnesses, our neighborhood holiday party, a mini dance recital, and soooo much more! I hope it can all be detailed with pix, b/c it would take pages to detail!! Over all, the holiday season is fully with us and there is lots of love to go around!
We were not as on top of sending xmas cards this year, so if you didn't get one - here it is (taken by Gil Hires!!):
