Snow Snow Snow...When Will Winter End??



Just to remind us that winter isn't over yet, Nature dumped another 8 inches of snow and blew in temperatures below freezing a couple of days ago. Under that 5 foot snow pile behind Abby (a.k.a. the Pink Marshmallow) are my spring bulbs and I wonder if that pile will even melt by spring. Needless to say, we are all very ready for spring to be here. Alex is slowly but surely recovering from having his tonsils and adenoids removed. At the moment he kind of looks like Goob in "Meet the Robinsons". He doesn't feel much like eating so gracious Abby often "helps" him. I think Alex has lost 5 pounds and Abby has gained a couple. Thankfully, Alex breathes much easier now which is why the surgery was done in the first place. The first picture above I took as the 'storm was upon us.'

Wow. What a storm. I am such a warm weather gal. My goodness, I was complaining about 2" of snow here (but part of that is because I could look online and see that Pasadena was still 80 degrees). Still, I don't know what I would do if I woke up to that; probably go back to bed!!
