I don't have time now to recount the history of the Mikols Family First Snow Competition ... but if I find a column I wrote about it, I'll post it later. (these first two photos are from the annual snow breakfast, which was held the day after our wedding because everyone was in town)
So .... it's MY TURN right now ... and it needs to snow in Wichita PRONTO! I have until noon on Nov. 10 for it to snow. Then we have to wait a week ... and Erik is in on the contest! E has from Nov. 24 to Dec. 1, which are excellent dates.
And here are Erik and Chris. These two fellas are the newest participants in the contest. Poor mom hasn't won yet, and it would probably make her green if one or both of her sons-in-law won before her.
Last year, "the family" (yeah, don't I sound like someone from The Godfather?) didn't allow Chris to participate because he married Robin after the official opening of the snow dates. I would have let him participate if he picked a date after their wedding, but the family was firm. Chris could NOT participate in 2007.
There was a *little* rumbling this year because the opening of dates was less than 24 hours after Erik became a member of the family ... but whiners can just deal. ;-)

A little birdie told me that you and your mom have teh same time so I know you are rooting for her to win this year.
One small correction: After noon Nov. 10, Paul takes over ... Then Wayne has it for a week before it falls to me ... I'm praying for the best ... Go Karen :-)
