See...I love how pretty the snow is...I just wish the cold didn't come with it. And I wish it was restricted to non-traffic areas. You should see DD's knees after falling off her bike Monday. We teased her that first she had a huge bruise on her leg because her leg fell through the trampoline spring edge at Skyzone where we had DS's birthday party (poor girl is as accident prone as her mother). It finally started to fade (I should have taken pictures...) and then she fell off her bike on the ice. DH told her she was just renewing the bruises since the one was fading. He asked her what she'll do to get new ones when these fade. And I think it's possible she sprained her wrist when she fell too. So, while snow is all pretty and fun when it lies there on the ground in areas where no one can get hurt, it is really not conducive to short-distance travel for the coordinationally-challenged.

Hrmmm....I'm thinking throwing yourself down the stairs to break your own ankle might be considered a bit extreme...we'll think on it. We have a whole year, right?

The stairs might might a bit extreme. I'm thinking "stomach flu".

How about alternating every other year--one year at home with your sister, and the other other year with hubs' family? Seems like a fair compromise to me. His family should realize that you also have a family, and would enjoy Christmas with them, too.

My sister only lives 40 minutes away so we do see them a lot and one day at Christmas is enough. However my dad does live in Florida now...:geek:

Sure....but how is it any different from sitting in the car? He can't drive, but she would be doing the driving. The only thing that changes is that she's not driving, other than to and from the airport. But even so, he invited them all there and instead they are still pressuring him to go there so THEY don't have to make any effort. Who cares about the inconvenience to the "invalid" and family...I don't want to have to make an effort, so they should make double the effort because we are that much more important? I won't say what I thought about saying because it's a family thread and there may be children watching.

I laughed at the last line, you can imagine how I have censored myself!:)

Last week we had snow that was PERFECT. Happened Friday night/ Saturday morning so no commute necessary, snowed enough for us to play in but didn't dip below 30* so it wasn't even that cold, and it was so pretty. The roads were already cleared when we woke up. I wish all snow could be like that. I LOVE snow, but hate driving in it.

I agree. The best snow is the one Disney makes. Fake and no cold to go along with it.:p
I didn't know that Skyzone was in other parts of the world other than the US. My kids enjoy going to the one near us quite a bit.
