Christmas in Salt Lake City

We somehow didn’t fit many Christmas outings into our schedules while we were still in Seattle, but here are some photographs from our trip to Utah for Christmas.

Here is Susanna as the donkey in the Hale family nativity:IMG_5413 IMG_5400

Frosty the Snowman

Yesterday all the meteorologists predicted two large snowstorms in Seattle—one of which would dump a minimum of two inches.  The Seattle and Seattle area schools therefore all closed for the day.  It was a good idea, I suppose, because any snow in Seattle is a big deal, but the problem is that it never actually snowed yesterday.  But the storm finally came early this morning (maybe even starting late last night) and has been snowing basically the whole day.

Susanna has talked about Frosty the Snowman a lot this year and she was therefore very excited to go make one of her own.  Here are a few photos.
