A little more snow

We got three or so inches of snowfall last night, blanketing the landscape with a new layer of fresh white. The weather is warming up again, so it probably won't remain too long. We will be getting heavy rains, according to the forecast, for the next few days.

Danny, Shelley, and Grandpa went for a walk yesterday afternoon. At the far terminal of the trail, Danny was apparently being his usual self, jumping off of things when he slipped on a snow covered, icy log and fell. I got a call from Grandpa asking for someone to drive up and pick them up, while I heard screaming in the background.

Apparently everything was okay, because Elise said later that evening that Danny was subdued to the activity level of a typical child his age. This morning, he is running around in the snow, as if nothing had happened.

This week will be somewhat busy for us. Shelley is going to an event this afternoon. All of us are planning on attending the Presbyterian potluck and play this evening. There are some other things going on in the middle of the week. Shelley has a piano recital on Friday. And we have our Christmas worship on Saturday. Will we make it through the week in one piece? Find out during the next few episodes of "As Alaska Turns."
