Sunday Evening

We had an actual, real-live, full blown snow storm today!!! It was awesome. It snowed most of the day. We went to church (Zookeeper, Penguin and Bee left early for choir practice and did a big slidy-whirly in the road on the way to church... whew! Safe! After we had stopped and weren't in the ditch, in the fence or up-side-down, the girls said... that was fun! Zookeeper didn't think so) and had awesome meetings - I love the Sunday before Christmas. Our choir did a Cantata -Shine for Me Again - for the Sunday School program. Zookeeper is the choir director and was thrilled with the way it turned out. When she started having choir practice about 6-8 people came. We had over 40 in the choir on Sunday. She hopes they all come back in January!

After church, dinner, naps and home teaching, we took the critters sledding behind the pickup. We started with three sleds, but of course one ended up breaking, so we were down to two. The camera battery died and it was getting dark, but here are a few shots. Hunter drove pretty mellow until just Steelhead and Martin were riding, then he went crazy trying to knock them off. I think Martin might have said, "not fast this time" but we heard "real fast this time!" :) We live near a BLM field so we borrowed it to drive the critters around in. Even Lemur had fun and he was mad when his turn was over.

The girls got dumped. Steelhead and Martin hang on.
We came in after sledding for hot chocolate and a game of Settlers of Catan. (and we charged the camera battery).
