Of course 雪 is kanji for snow (pronounce yu-ki). It started snowing coming down on Sunday about 1100 and kept on going until Monday at 0600. The 20 hours of perpetual precipitation brought over 14 inches on the ground. We were out at a fireside on Sunday night and coming home was quite an adventure. We are sure glad we got the 4x4 A-Team Memorial Van when we got here. That thing ran like a champ while others were sitting on the side.
They really don't plow any of the streets here which is just baffeling to me. On base they get to it eventually, off base they just figure you can wait until April
We all had a good time playing in the snow and doing a lot of shoveling. It was fun to see all the neighbors out helping each other dig out cars and clear the sidewalk. It will be interesting to see how long the neighborhood goodwill lasts.
We made a snowman and a snow dog even though it is kind of washed out in the sea of white.
Once mom announced that there was hot chocolate in the house the snow constructed crew was down to one.

Misawa 雪 - Day
Here are some videos from our Christmas Concert last week:
Truman decided one day that he wanted to play the piano, he never had a lesson. He just sits down and plays what he hears.
Tally's first piano recital, he did very well.
Chlöe's version of "O Christmas Tree"
This was really cool, Rose learned "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" because it is my favorite Christmas Song. I didn't know she was planning to do this at all, she was very sneaky. That was really a great Christmas present
