Grace in small things: In which we get stuck in a ditch edition
- X-mas shopping with Bubs downtown today in the snow...he worked so hard considering all his options for Sis...he's so excited about the present he got her...
- Lots of Christmas-y things accomplished today, including wrapping some presents and getting them under the tree (they look so pretty!) and getting my Christmas Card list in order...always a balance because I want to do fun stuff like snowboard or take the kids to play in the snow but I don't feel good if things feel out of control around the house (and/or with work)...really glad I spent today getting on top of things...
- Community Christmas party at Howelsen Hill this evening...it was magical...so much fun...
- ...followed by us taking the back way (River Road) home and getting stuck in a ditch...it rained and then snowed last night so the roads are as scary as I've seen them...but the good things about getting stuck were: We were all fine, the car was fine, we have roadside assistance and a tow truck was there in about 45 minutes, it was a great adventure for the kids to get to see a tow truck in action, and almost everyone who passed us stopped to see if they could help which reminded me of one of the many reasons I love love love living in small-town Colorado...
- My husband helping with feeding the dog, taking the dog out, getting the kids into bed, making the coffee for the morning etc. when we finally got home...appreciate him so much...
XOXO
