Snow
We have been getting snow here in small amounts in the upstate. On Dec 21, Mother Nature must of gotten a wild hair and decided that since the world wasn't ending that needed some snow. We had rain/slush/snow on the 21st. I then had 5 days straight of shoveling. I got a day off on the 26th, only for her to turn around and dump a foot on us Dec 27th. I have no clue how much we have gotten today. I did shovel at lunch time when I went out to get the mail, but I'm going to wait until tomorrow to do it again. At that point I'll probably have to dig out the snowblower and use it again. Only 29 days until we move south and I hopefully won't see snow for the rest of the winter.

Off Track
So I made it about a 100 days or so taking photos. To me, that is great that I was able to go that long. Things are crazy around here like normal still, but I now have 3 kids in school (yahoo!). Somehow the 5 hours a day that I get to myself is just not enough to get everything done.
Since I've last posted, we have had adventures to the zoo, camping a couple of times, another awesome hike, a car accident (totaled out my baby), a couple of day trips, me walking my first 2 5Ks, and other adventures.
I've also decided to not try to do a photo a day anymore since it oblivious doesn't work for me. Instead I'll try to do more about places we visit and things to do since it's more of who I am.

Day 97 of 366
Today we went on a hike. It was cold. Very cold. As in only 32F when we left our van. Once we got to our stopping site, the kids were freezing. The were very happy to head back to the van after lunch. The van said that it was 39F then.
Day 96 of 366
Today was the egg hunt at DH's job. All 3 kids had a blast.
These are not photos of my kids...just of an egg hunt.

It was a quiet day. This is a picture of the calendar that my DH got me this year. I started buying different calendars like this when we lived in Germany. 7 years later and we still do it.

Day 65 of 366
After everyone was gone this morning, I looked out the window and got the youngest over to me. We could see 3 deer over by the neighbors house. I managed to get a couple of photos before they were spooked and took off. Seeing deer here is a normal thing. Come spring time we should see turkeys too.

Day 63 of 366
Saturday we had friends over for supper. I baked a cake and bread for it, and made Mac n cheese in the crockpot. We also had deer steaks, corn, baby baked potatoes, and fresh fruit to eat.
Day 62 of 366
The youngest and I went shopping since the weather was so much nicer. We managed to hit 5 stores in 2.5 hours. When we got home, the youngest went up to his bed and crashed. I guess that it was just too much for him. I redid the pantry while it was quiet.
Day 61 of 366
Thursday was a quiet at home day for us. The weather couldn't decide if it wanted to snow or rain so it kept switching back and forth all day.
Day 60 of 366
The youngest and I went all over town looking for ski wax for DH. We didn't find any, but I did find these art deco-ish stamps at J's.

Day 59 of 366
My fever broke this morning thankfully. The youngest and I did run a couple of errands but only because we were almost out of milk. All afternoon he has been a lap monkey and not leaving me alone at all. Well, he just crawled back into my lap and fell asleep.
Day 57 of 366
Sunday I started to come down with some type of bug. I don't remember a whole lot of the day but I do remember DH playing Zelda in the afternoon while the kids watched
