Winter Wonderland

So this is what we woke up to this morning....


We had heard that it was supposed to snow overnight, but we did not expect this! Taylor thinks we probably got about 6 inches.


We decided to make a trip to Walmart this afternoon and see how the roads were. Here is Taylor being sweet and cleaning off my car. What you don't see is that he had just hit me with a VERY large snowball... Ha!


While we were out, we decided to make a quick trip to Hobby Lobby and pick out a new ornament for our tree! Taylor's family has a tradition where they pick an ornament out each year that represents an important event from that year. Here is the ornament we ended up with...


Since a major event this year was us moving to Illinois, we thought the corn was a good representation of that! We are also going to find something that represents Taylor starting graduate school, but he didn't see anything today, so we are still looking. We need to get a first Christmas/marriage ornament but all the ornaments had really creepy looking faces so we passed on buying one of those today as well! :)


Now we are just hanging around the house so I decided to try and bake some cookies. Taylor loves his Moggie's sugar cookies so I attempted to make a batch of them. Mine didn't quite turn out as pretty and yummy as hers, but Taylor still said they were good!


Ok, now off to cook dinner. We are making Poppyseed Chicken which I am excited about, but I feel like I've been in the kitchen and washing dishes all day! ha. Hope you are having a nice weekend! We are really excited to see many of you soon :)
