Erik Brings Snow !!!!

My oldest son, Erik, came for the week before Christmas and we didn't leave him alone a minute. He had to hike up the road the entire time he was here because of the snowstorm that hit us just after he arrived. We got almost a foot of snow and it's being called The Blizzard of 2009 - even though it fails miserably by Northern standards. Here we are getting around via pickup truck.
 
We were able to scrounge together enough clothes to keep him warm.
 
We even scrounged up a newborn for him to hold. This is Molly and William Hamilton's new son, Heyth (sp?)
 
Erik always brings a few addicting things to tempt us with and this online game was one of them. Surprisingly, the goal is to learn geography. They worked in groups, with each person being more knowleddgeable in a different area. Sara is pretty good with Africa and Cameron is pretty good with Central & South America. I plan to try it this winter and brush up on my mapping skills.
