Weather Update

I find it hard to stay upbeat at this time of year. I should not let the weather affect me but for some reason it does. I can be a good sport during December (because of Christmas) and even during January. But come February, Cache Valley usually dips into a dreaded "inversion" which means foggy and polluted air, and worst of all, very cold temperatures. Even then I could probably still handle it because it is still winter. That is, until I watch the news and find that every other location in Utah is a balmy 56 degrees while Logan remains at 24. This makes me so angry to know that people 50 miles away are enjoying that kind of weather! It's a good thing that this is one of the best places to live otherwise.... and we do have nice summers--now if only it would come!

California

With an inversion at home, a holiday weekend, and an itching to visit Disneyland, we packed up the kids and headed for warmer temperatures. Just a few pictures to document the trip...

Visiting Tyler and Tara

We headed down to Provo last weekend and ended up at the Bean Museum. Very fun for the kids, a little scary at times too!!

A little sunset sledding

We've been hammered by quite a few snow storms this last month. So far the kids can't get enough. We're enjoying it, because come next Monday it's back to school!

Before... After

Well, it took a lot of time and elbow grease but we finally got Zack's room updated to match a 10 year old a little better. We loaded out 5 garbage bags of junk and tried to organize the closet. Now if we can just convince the 10 year to use a garbage can and a laundry hamper we might be able to keep the room clean for about 2 days.

Christmas morning odds and ends

For the Grandparents...

Morrison Christmas Party 2008

We traveled through a snowstorm down to John's brother's house in Tooele for the family party this year. We enjoyed visiting, playing, eating, opening presents, and putting our very professional nativity play. We always have a great time when we get together! We are looking forward to next year when Garr and Karalee will be home to celebrate with us.
