A Few COLD Holiday Pictures

Usually at family events... people run from me. Yes, I am the one snapping hundreds of photos. When we are with Jeff's family though I take advantage of his sister-in-laws photography skills & step down. Every now & again I try to steal her camera so future posterity will know she was there too. But...here are a few Connecticut pictures that made it to my memory card:

This snow was on the ground before we got there. The sun came out after a few days & melted all this away to reveal green grass. :-(

Jeff's dad had knee surgery days before...I think I know why his knee was aching :-0

Does this look familiar? The snow started coming down, so we had to get an updated picture from outside his parent's Connecticut home.

As the storm was dumping snow Ty & I started the sledding. It came down hard this day. Luckily the green grass turned white again. I really don't like being cold, but if there is snow, the cold is completely tolerable!

Our little angel

Sydney's new coat. Isn't it darling!

We also went over to a nearby park & went sledding with the whole family. We had a great time. Jeff's brother had a sled that had a sturdy base & a seat belt...Sydney was going down solo with a huge grin. Ty was fearless too. They are preparing to be future snowboarders...at least that's our hope.

The cousins:

Apparently swing sets are year round everywhere. Just stay away from the slide.

Look at that storm!

We had such a nice time playing games, visiting, going out together, movies, shopping. We also got to spend time with Papa, Jeff's grandfather. We will treasure that time to visit with him, being that it was probably our last.

What a great Christmas & New Year it was! I only wish I had pictures of more family to share!
