Merry Christmas from Kansas

our first christmas eve was an eventful one here in shawnee.  my mom and dad are here and have been a great help, cooking and cleaning while j and i got ready for christmas services.  ainsley had a fun but full day, trying to open presents and having a grand old time. 

as the day wore on, the weather got worse and the forcasts got more complex.  around noon my head of staff called to say that i was not obligated to stay in lawrence (a 45 minute drive) for the 10 pm service, but that both services were still on.
so dad and i bundled up and headed to lawrence.  getting there wasn't bad.  during the 6pm service it snowed at least 4 inches and we cancelled the 10 pm service.  getting home was a bit more rocky!  but we took our time, and with a great navigator/cheerleader the cr-v and i made it back to shawnee. 




it is our first white christmas. can't wait to see the morning!  


"hallelujah every body say cheese,
merry christmas from the family!"
