I went over to my parents’ house to celebrate my mom’s birthday, which was the other day. My sister, Shelby, came down with the kids for a visit. Andrew enjoyed getting some time to play with is cousins. He loves them so much. He loves getting time to play with those kiddos.
After our visit we went to KC’s Classic Burger Bar to enjoy a nice meal. Allison and Andrew went over first and I arrived with Eva later. Eva just started a new round of her theater class today and she was so excited. I’ glad that she felt better today and was able to go to school and didn’t have to miss out on her first class. When I picked her up she was so excited about everything. She was giddy and bouncing all over the car as we drove to KC’s. Dinner was delicious.
We got home and were met by our neighbor, Tim. He helped me for a while yesterday with my snowblower and the stuck shearing pin. There was nothing that I could do to take the pin out. So, he brought over is drill and drilled out the whole pin so we could put the new one in. Now, the only thing I need to do is fix the pull start that I broke last year.
A nice thing about working overnights when it snows is that in the early morning the roads have been cleared up. Then there is the snow on the trees and the ground. It was a very light snow and it mostly melted on the driveway and roads. The clouds overhead were thick but the sky beyond was nice and blue. When I arrived at my parents’ house I noticed that the driveway wasn’t cleared so I parked on the street. I was a bit sleepy and closed my eyes for a bit. I noticed that my dad was out snowblowing the driveway. I moved my car into the driveway. When I got out I saw the arc of the snow flying through the air while the sun came down through the clouds and lit it up really nice. I didn’t get the exact photo that I wanted but I was able to capture some light flare and the snow flying through the air. Mornings like that have great light.
After Church we visited with my parents and then went to pick out our Christmas tree at Attleboro Farms. The tree selection was pretty small. We got a fairly small one and Eva was not happy about it. I kinda feel like Linus and want to tell her that is isn’t a bad little tree. Dad and I set the tree up and then I slept for the day.
We had one of Allison’s friends over for dinner. Andrew had fun with a new audience and he was charming and cute but a bit over excited. Then it was off to work.
