Today we said good-bye to the warm weather we've been enjoying over the past week. Today was cold, high's only in the 30's, with wind and cloudy skies. The cold weather seems here to stay, night time temps will be in the 20's and teens this week. Hopefully the snow will hold off until we can get out of here sometime next week.

We followed our normal Sunday morning routine--breakfast, showers, and then off to church. This afternoon we watched some NFL and then packed some canned goods for the trip south. John went out to sit in the deer stand, but didn't see a single deer. Rifle season is now over for another year.

Hanna received an early Christmas present from her parents--a new laptop. She downloaded Skype on it and asked me to do the same with my laptop. This afternoon we tried our first video calling and after a few minor tweaks, we were able to visit over the computer. This is going to be a great way to keep up with the family over the winter.
