As the second winter storm passes, and we are left with upwards of 17 inches, I'll post that we had a fabulous weekend with the Speggen/Nutt family. Thanks to Jeff's massive 4 wheel drive vehicle, they made the trip from SWPA to SCPA via the turnpike late Friday afternoon. Although it was slow at times, they didn't have any real major problems getting here. We had fun playing games, watching TV, entertaining the little ones and even sled riding in our backyard. Jen and I bundled Callum and Dante up so much that both of them fell down, respectively in the dining room, as well as out in the snow. Callum wasn't too bothered about sledding but he watched everyone else go up and down the hill. It took him awhile before he'd let me put him down (do you blame him? The snow was over his head), but once I did, he played happily for about 10 minutes before taking a dive face first into the snow. He didn't like that. We went inside, wiped his face and then went right back out. The little boys did a great job playing together and the big boys cleared the sidewalks, driveway and cars so we should be all set to get to work tomorrow (BOO). It was a very fun and relaxing weekend. Callum is battling a nasty head cold and chest congestion so I had the pleasure of sleeping on the floor in his room last night. He kept waking up between 8 and midnight so I figure it was best to just hang out there. Fortunately, he slept the rest of the night and he is presently napping. I am praying that nap lasts at least three hours because he got NO shut eye yesterday afternoon. Oh well. Hope you have a warm house and power as many people have lost it from what I understand! Enjoy the pics.

Wow, that's a serious amount of snow!! Boys look as tho they're having great fun. Hope snow is away before your birthday on 23rd, Mary - February's not the best month to be born, but don't suppose you had any say in the matter!
Lovely to see Callum (and Iain) on Skype today - he was in good form and he did show us "Sweepie" again. We'll try reading him a story next time we Skype.
Love to all.
