Christmas was uneventful but filled with family and good times, as it should be. My in-laws got us living room furniture for Christmas - a couch, loveseat, and two chairs in classic leather style. Finally, a place to sit downstairs! I found a dining room set I liked, so if the hubby likes it too we’ll be well on our way to a fully furnished house (except for the basement rooms and guest bedroom).
New Year’s Day we were greeted with a surprise snowstorm in the evening. Within a couple of hours it snowed at least two inches, maybe more (it looked like two inches on the gate, but seemed a bit deeper than that as we walked through it). Unfortunately, my brother-in-law was planning a name day party, and most of his guests had to turn back well before they reached our mountain compound. At least we live next door, so the party wasn’t a complete bust. Three days later the roads are *almost* fully cleared, but the snow still blankets everything. I guess this is what mountain winters are going to be like.
I hope that everyone had a great holiday season. Here’s to a spectacular 2008 for everyone (and hoping that we get ADSL in 2008!).
Only one picture uploaded this time. I’m not a masochist!

Hope adsl comes soon.
At least you got snow - here (Oslo, Norway) we did have a clear sky, around freezing point - and a view at New Years eve that was incredible: All the Inner Oslofjord and tons of fireworks all over. What a sight.
have a great 2008
Best of luck for the new year, and hoping you have a bureaucratic breakthrough on your ADSL ASAP! I've been missing reading your blog.
I wish you a happy, healthy and fruitful New Year (and with an ADSL connection soon). ;)
