Brrrr....We're gonna freeze!

We're flyin' to Grandma and Grandpa's house bright and early Wednesday morning...this is what it looks like there right now! The kids were hoping for snow and boy did the weather man deliver! Plus two more storms are on their way this week - hopefully we can get there without any problems.
I don't know who is more excited about the trip, Blake and Ashlyn or Grandma and Grandpa. My crazy parents went outside today in freezing temperatures to build a snowman for the kids for when they get there in case the snow melts and there isn't enough to make one of their own. The kids will LOVE it - thanks Grandma and Grandpa! Ashlyn who hasn't seen the snow since she was a baby and Blake who barely remembers playing in it on Mt. Hood are in for a RUDE awakening come Wednesday when we get there in 20-30 degree temps when it's been in the 70-80's here for over month, not to mention that our "winter" temps only get down in the 50's usually. If we don't die of hypothermia and if I don't lose fingers to frost bite, I'll post pictures of our 2 week winter adventure in Montana when we get back!

If you want to meet in Billings let me know! It's a 3 hour drive for us but it's our closest temple. I think it's closer for your parents. It'd be fun if you'd like. Otherwise, have a great trip and bundle up! Shannon

Maybe I am not so sad any more that I wont be there. That looks too cold for me. Not that we are in the 70's here but at least we don't have snow. Ok, seeing these pictures makes me even more sad that I wont be there:(
