No white christmas for me 
We did get some rain though.
I got some GREAT presents for the baby!
Not only that.... but my mom bought the baby its own ornament for this year (we all have these little snowman bells with our names on it.. she got a blank one for the baby and will get a new one with the baby's name when he's born).
We had a lot of fun telling everyone we were thinking of naming the baby Banjo Tennessee They either laughed or looked very frightened!!
My aunt gave us the crib, dresser and nightstand.. then also got us a musical stuffed baby mickey mouse, a super soft hat and mittens set, a to-go changing pad + changing accessories thing, a box set of cardboard flip books that their kids love... THEN also got me 2 onesies, and a dalmation fleece sleeper/romper thing with a knitted dalmation hat including ears!
My other aunt looked VERY jealous that she didn't start getting me stuff yet. She gave us Parenting for Dummies and highlighted some stuff but must have restrained herself from buying baby things and was bummed my other aunt got a head-start

I'm in Georgia right now and we got snow yesterday and people did not know how to act. My Husband is back home in NY (we live in both NY and GA because I'm a flight attendant, but will be moving back to NY officially in May) and they're suppose to get up to 2 feet of snow. I'm glad I'm not there because I've had enough snow in my lifetime.

Hey ladies!! What a great break, so sad the real world demands my attention now! Christmas was great, the boys were spoiled with so much crap! lol! My MIL got me a pregnancy 1 hour massage, so i cannot wait to use that
Christmas was like 70* here, but the day after was cold and today is REALLY cold for us... 54* is the high and we woke up to 27*.... too bad it doesn't snow here
Stupid Florida.
Oh, and my SIL did get a gift for Natalie - a set of onesies... family said now that christmas is over they can start buying more for her... hmm

lol @ your husband, had you guys drove here yesterday he would have been right. The snow came down really hard Christmas day/night and although it didn't stick to the streets it did stick to the grass.. but I don't even think it was 2 inches of snow and by the next day a lot of it melted.

Keep the snow far, far away from Wisc! 
We had a white Christmas but not much, a couple inches or so.

I hear they still haven't plowed the streets in Brooklyn and Queens, but Long Island and Manhattan were plowed. I guess this will have to be day 2 of people not going to work.

yeah my grandma is up on long island (bethpage) and she said she got 20in but she doesnt care cause she doesnt go anywhere...
I talked to a friend of mine in the city just last week and he said "oh not much snow here".... then his facebook yesterday said somethnig about "all" the snow they got .. lol.
We did have icicles where people left sprinklers on overnight, and the car doors were frozen shut this morning so we had to take extra time to deal with it.

The smokey mountains are so beautiful. I lived in Knoxville for awhile and took frequent trips there and around Gatlinburg. My Dad still lives in Knox and said they actually got quiet a bit of snow there (for Tn, that is) this year.

I'm hoping it snows at least a little when we go up there because the kids have never seen snow before, and i think it will kinda make it worth it to go up ther in the winter..
