Every year all the aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandma come over for the holidays. There is always great food and great fun. But when a snowstorm hits and no one can make it, the moms and two kids have to come up with some new holiday traditions.

I liked the message that even though things might look a little different, it does not mean the holiday was ruined. The family was able to still have good food, play games, and enjoy each other's company. There is a recipe at the end for Grandma's Apple Crisp.

The family is white.
