Christmas time is always an adventure

So today was the second Sunday in a row that church was canceled due to the snow. I grew up in CO and nothing was canceled because of the snow. But at least we are having fun playing in the snow! I decided it was about time to get a picture taken for our Christmas cards, if I ever get them mailed out. So I propped my camera with a box and used the self timer and this is the best one that I could get. I think it turned out all right. I'll add a few more pictures that I shot, but in my opinion this is the best.
The roads are so bad, I had a hard time driving to my dad's in Portland with chains on my tires. I figured if we are going to be cooped up inside for the next couple days we might as well go to my dad's a couple days early and spend time with them. My dad's work has been canceled the last few days, and my sister hasn't worked either. And since Sara is leaving us all to go off to college and BYUI in 2 weeks we need to spend as much time with her as possible. It was scary driving down I-5 I had to have my windows down a bit and I couldn't see out my front window because the wind was blowing snow everywhere and ice was building up on it. Crazy, but I made it here safely. I just hope that the weather clears up in the next few days so the kids can make it to their dad's for Christmas day! Here are a few more pictures from today!

Also the kids were running around naked with these glasses on saying they were going to beat someone up, lol, it was so funny. Trenten has been into kung fu ever since the first time he watched Kung Fu Panda in the theater. I just had to post this picture it's adorable.
