West Virginia Holidays

We spent 3 weeks in St. Marys, WV, Heath's hometown. We got to visit with a lot of his family and spend everyday with Grandpa Tom and Grandma Stella. The weather was certainly snowy and freezing cold most of the time, so we stayed bundled inside for most of it. Being from Rwanda, we don't exactly have good snow gear! Pete thought snow looked pretty, but preferred the warmth of the house. Here are a few pictures of our time there.

Pete love helping Grandma Stella decorate a cake for a wedding while we were there and he enjoyed eating it even more!! He actually had a hard time eating anything else for the 3 days it took to bake, decorate and deliver the cake! :)


Shoveling snow is no more fun than it looks!


Grandma Postlethwait came down several times to visit with us. It was great to see her and play 5000 Rummy and Mexican Train, like we always do.


We had Christmas while we were there and as you can tell from Pete's face, he thoroughly enjoyed it. He loved digging in his stocking and pulling out treats.




Duck season came in while we were visiting and Heath loved getting to go out with his Dad, every morning it was possible. Their time was not spent in vain, there were ducks aplenty.

WV looks beautiful! What a blessing to have a "warm" place to stay when you come back to the states.
