Hello Snow!

Well, the snow decided not to wait a couple weeks to show itself like I had hoped.  It had to go on and intrude into Autumn's loveliness.  Winter...pfft...such an attention hog!  Stick to your own season why don't you!

First Snow
Regardless of how I feel about the snow crashing my fall lovin' party, I have to admit it is beautiful.

But...does this tree look like it was ready for Winter weather?
First Snow - Not Ready for This
Nope, not a bit.  We didn't have any damage at our house, but there were several trees around base that had broken limbs.

Of course, Brennan couldn't wait to get out in it.
First Snow - Let It Snow

Daddy showed him how to make snow balls.

He's so proud of himself.  (Just keep those things away from me, ok?)
First Snow - So Proud

Since the little man is getting into snow playing, I guess it's about time for the mama to update her Winter gear.
First Snow - Mama Boots
In case you were wondering, rain boots don't keep your feet very warm.

At first Chloe was not a big fan of the snow.
First Snow _ Chloe
I just know she was thinking, "Eww!"

Jason made her some snow-free tracks.
First Snow _ Doggie Expressway
Which we later called the Doggie Expressway because of the way she was zipping around.

After awhile she decided to channel her inner sled dog, or maybe it was snowshoe rabbit, ha. : )

One happy boy.
First Snow - Smile

"No thanks, Mommy doesn't want any snow."
First Snow - Snowy Glove

Time to get toasty.
First Snow _ drying Out
Ahhh, my favorite part.

Looks like it's time to stock up on hot chocolate! : )

Spring Starts in March, Right?

I have had this sign hanging on our front door for weeks.  Weeks! 
Spring Please!

I am so ready for Spring!

Just a few things on my "Spring Ready" list:
Brennan asks to wear his sandals everyday.
I have three pairs of new flip flops that haven't seen the outside yet. 
I just gave myself a pedicure.
I have been working on my Jergens Natural Glow tan.
I have lilies to plant, and planters that we keep dragging in and out everyday.


Obviously, Mother Nature just can't take a hint.  That, or she has a mean sense of humor.

This is what was happening yesterday evening.
April 7th, Snowing Again
And this was just the icing on the cake after a gloomy day of rain, sleet, and hail. (There's snow on the forecast through Sunday! boo!!)

But, at least with the snow came a little hope.
Robin in the Tree
Well hello, Mr. Robin!

This little guy and his buddy were hanging out in our yard.
Though, I don't think they looked too happy to be here.
Hello Mr. Robin
"Hmmph...I think we took a wrong turn in Arizona."


Happy Weekend Everybody!
