I opened Suzan's post and was asked to start a thread with a question, so here you go!


What's your favorite holiday and why do you like it so much?

it doesn't seem to phase justin at all that he works on holidays. he knew it goping into cooking & restaurant business. jeremy doesn't seem to care much- he says he is too old for holidays especially with no family around.
as long a she goes to church that i'm happy

Oh how I wish you could send me some snow too! It did snow here in the sunshine state one Christmas. I think my daughter was 7 at the time. We stayed up all night waiting for it & it was very exciting to see. Of course it wasn't like your snow, we could barely see it coming down & it just dusted the ground & the tops of cars & the garbage can lids. It melted as soon as the sun came up. When I was in Jr high school it did snow one year in January. The schools were closed & everything. Ya'll would have laughed at us silly Floridians for closing the schools when the snow wasn't even a 1/2 inch deep. But we could scoop up enough to make a few snowballs & it stayed on the ground most of the morning. Oh what fun :)
