A Little Christmas Fact to Share...

Just a little piece of Christmas info I'd like to pass along to all those interested..."Magical Reindeer Dust" does not attract flying reindeer when spread all over Mommy and Daddy's carpet! However...when it is licked up by small children and Scottish Terriers the red and green "magical dust," that to the untrained eye looks like cookie decorating colored sugar, does leave pretty colored splotches that reindeer might be able to spot as they fly by. Good thing we're going to Gigi and Pa's for Christmas (and don't worry, we have another bag of Magical Reindeer Dust) because the carpet cleaner does a great job of removing those red and green streaks from the carpet! Just wanted to pass that along!! Happy Holidays!

Yep...we are being POUNDED!!!

Just a quick note to all those wondering...yes we are being absolutely pounded with snow!! The snow started around 10am and is still going strong!! I have shoveled the driveway three times today (we decided to pave the driveway instead of purchase a snowblower...sounded perfectly sane at the time...not so much right now!! LOL) and Jeff is out right now doing the final shovel before morning. We have been forcasted for 30 centimeters, but my guess is it will be quite a bit more. About 8 inches have fallen so far and the snow isn't due to stop until tomorrow afternoon. As it looks now, school will probably be canceled tomorrow...yeah...at least Maddy can stay up tonight to watch Shrek the Halls at 9pm...she's thrilled about that. I'll keep you all updated on the first snowfall of the season!! Stay Warm!!

Happy Holidays!!

Happy Holidays!! Just wanted to put a quick post up to show how adorable my little girlys looked at their first Christmas party of the season!!

Jeff's work had a party for the kids this afternoon. It was lovely. They had worked hard to make it a super fun afternoon for all the kiddos. There were crafts to make, cookies to decorate, a fishing game, a magician and of course Santa made an appearance!! Maddy loved Santa and Sarah HATED him!! She cried when he walked in the room and went into hysterics when Jeff tried to hand her over for a picture!! Oh well...in time she'll warm up...maybe!
We had a couple of friends over from Jeff's work for dinner on Saturday and went to see Mr. Magoriums Wonder Emporium on Friday...all in all it's been a busy weekend for the Pederson's!!
Hope all is well in your end of the world...enjoy the holidays...and take a second to share some of the Christmas Spirit this season!!
