Blastin' Cancer is a quilt made of t-shirts of Noah and Sam fighting cancer. Well it worked because Noah is finished with treatment and cancer free as of Dec. 27, 2010. Yeah Noah!

Christmas 2010=snow, snow and more snow!

The folks arrived just in time for the flakes to fall.

It did not stop us from baking or decorating the annual gingerbread village. We did scale it down a bit due to the fact my sister has a herniated disc in her back and could hardly move.
Most of her vacation was spent on the couch, much to the dogs delight.
Brandi and Richard sent me a new Jim Shore Snowman titled "Chilly Dog." It makes a lovely addition to my snowman collection.
