First Snow

What a nice way to start December, with our first "real" snowfall!  It is so beautiful and there is now a white blanket of snow covering Greenville, MI.  Sarah has reported snow, of course, since Holland is in the snow belt of West Michigan.  Mary just sent me a picture from the University of Michigan getting their first snow too! Jeff was right~Winter is here! Guess I had better get the snow boots, hats and gloves out! Even Sammy wanted to go out several times this morning and sniffed the air among other things!

Doctor reports:

• Matthew's check up went so well, he doesn't have to go back for six months! Praise the Lord!  We will have to wait for lab results to make sure that it is all normal.  No reason to think otherwise.
• I went to the doctor's office and saw a PA yesterday.  My lungs are clear. Got antibiotics for the begininng of a sinus infection.  Feeling better today and my voice is almost back to normal!
• Our cars are in the hospital.  The Prius is getting an oil change, tire rotation, and a once over to see why our check engine light comes on intermittantly.  The Camry needs a new part and both should be ready today! Jeff has a loaner car and Matthew continues to drive the van.  It will be his first time driving in the snow. Luckily there isn't much on the roads.

The TV shuffle is completed.  The little TV in our room moved to Sarah's room.  The old monster TV from the den moved upstairs to our room and our new 42" TV is in the den.  Wow! It is so awesome.  Matthew even played one video game before bed.  It was a long process to get everything in place, but it sure is nice.

  

Tonight is our Hanging of the Greens advent service.  The orchestra is playing the music and by the end of the evening, our church will be all decorated for Christmas!  I need to finish decorating our own house. Not too much to do.  

Well, that is all for now.  Have a great December 1st.
