My poor mother is flying into this tomorrow.  Hopefully, we will not get hypothermia and die.  When it is that cold here you can not even breathe outside and it feels like your eyeballs are going to freeze.  This really makes Aaron and I miss Washington and makes Hannah mad that she had to be born here.  Stay warm  and enjoy the snow in WA.  We miss you!

    Hi Aaron, Ashlee, and Hannah! It sounds like you had a great Christmas except for that barfing thing! Hope you are all feeling better now. Glad that we don’t get the kind of cold weather you are experiencing. Nice thing about living here is, if the snow comes, it gives us a great excuse to go nowhere and do nothing…and I am all about doing nothing whenever i can..ha. Try to stay warm and give each other a hug for us…Happy New Year. Love, Uncle Bob and Aunt Nancy.
