Friday Five
1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays?
absolutely. growing up in the south making sandmen on the beach is pretty cool, but christmas should have snow. but that’s it. spring would start january 1 if i had a say.
2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?
the ideal celebration is with family. we’d spend christmas eve at my parents, christmas morning at home, noon at kerri’s parents, dinner with everyone, games that evening at the landes’ home.
…that or snowed in all day with just the immediate family.
3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?
tree goes up thanksgiving weekend; bake cookies the next. growing up presents got opened on christmas eve. now we’re still sorting out what we want to do. every day samantha moves the snowman to the next number in the advent calendar.
4. Do you do anything to help the needy?
not expressly associated with the holiday season. we sponsor a child thru both world vision and tijuana christian mission.
5. What one gift would you like for yourself?

Spring in January?
Obviously a man with no respect for ALL of God’s timing and purpose with nature.
hey i almost got my wish! we had three days of 60°F temps… followed by a monsoon… followed by actual winter. oh well, only 10½ more weeks ’til spring!
