   "High chance of a snow storm tonight. Windows blowing at seventy miles an hour. Temperatures dropping to mid twenties. This storm may last for a couple of days. We ask that you put wood on your porches, stay inside, and cuddle up with a blanket, till the storm ends. This is David Scott, with the nightly news."

Mary turned the TV off, and signed. "Looks like we won't be going anywhere for a while. Unless we walk to the store," she said.
"No store is worth losing our butts over," Madison stated.
"Hey? Where did Isabella and Ashley go," Tayler asked, poring all of the boys some hot chocolate, and handing them each a cup.
"They went to bring in firewood," Savannah laughed, as baby Eren poked his head around the corner of the wall, playfully. "They should be about done now."
Baby Bertholdt and baby Marco, sat at the window, and watched the two girls carry wood to the front porch.
"It's getting colder by the second," Isabella said, walking up the steps.
"Yeah. Good thing this was the last loud of wood," Ashley stated.
"Thank goodness," Isabella sighed.
The two girl's walked in through the door, and pulled off their coats. Bertholdt and Marco ran up to them, and gave them hugs.
Ashley lifted Marco into her arms, and carried him to the couch. Sitting them down on her lap.
Isabella began to put wood into the fireplace, and then turned it on. She dusted her hands off, and held Bertholdt's hand. She led him to the spot on the couch beside Ashley and Marco. Isabella sat down, and let Bertholdt lay his head on her lap.
She began to pet and play with his silky, soft, black hair.
"So what are we going to do," baby Reiner said as he sat in the recliner with Madison.
"Oh oh oh. Can we watch a movie," baby Jean asked happily.
"I don't see why not," Mary said.
"Fine with us," Isabella and Ashley said.
Tayler, being the big movie watcher, said that she had just the movie. Since it was just a few weeks till Christmas came, they decided to watch 'Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.'
They all turned the lights out, and lit candles. All had a cup of hot-cocoa, and cuddled up in the living room.
