Eleven

It’s Eleven Degrees Outside Now...
Current mood: content


I just spent a while writing the nicest blog about how great our day was. When I looked up the word idyllic to be sure I was spelling it right, I lost the blog. Grr. Both Eric and I were off today and the kids were also home...a big rarity lately. We had a really nice day together....

We shopped for goodies for a family dinner, then snacks for afterwards while decorating our tree. I think the high today was 20, and it didn't get any higher than that! It was interesting...the white blanket over the city stayed that way, pretty much, since we got a good amount of snow last night. I don't know how many inches offhand, but enough to leave quite a lot of the white stuff lying around-quite beautiful, actually. And there were icicles hanging off of buildings, we noticed-we were pretty intrigued by this.

We listened to Christmas music while we did the decorating of the house. Idyllic. As my sis Jess would say..."I'm greatful."

Hey Leslie, just wait till those icicles span all the way from your roof to the ground!! Those are COOL!!
I must say I am quite impressed at how excited you still seem about winter! You have such a great attitude. Inspiring, really!!!
How about a snowman! The one you built a few weeks ago needs a big brother!!
