Well I got a wonderful surprise this new years. My parents helped fly Sarah up to visit us for four days before the end of the break. It was a lot of fun to be able to show her Hauser Lake and Couer'd Alene. I only got stuck once and that was when I slid off the road out at Hauser. I think it made dad happy though cause he got to put his new truck to use pulling me out. We had an awesome time exploring and eating huge desserts at the Couer'd Alene Resort. It was so beautiful up there with all the record snow for December. Everything was white. With all the snow came a lot of work however. We had to shovel the roofs of all the buildings. The lower garage wasn't too bad but we had to do it twice cause it doesn't have enough of an angle for the snow to fall off. The house was interesting with dad falling off twice, luckily landing in the soft snow. I managed to stay on the roof the entire time but that made my job last longer cause I had to shovel all the snow instead of it sliding off on its own. Having learned our lesson we used a rope on the upper garage, which turned out to be a good thing. One side let go immediately when my dad started and the other side slid off about halfway through the shoveling leaving me lying on the roof holding onto my rope so I wouldn't fall off. All in all it was an awesome break, but I am glad to be back at school.

Looks like it was FUN work!
That's A LOT of snow!
You should probably learn how to spell Coeur d'Alene since it is your hometown and all.
