Spring is Coming! Spring is Coming!

I'm thinking I'm going to be on the losing end of this bet.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Kari and Bryce both made their t-shirts themselves.  I found this super simple idea here.

A Little Outside Creativity

This has become Bryce's new favorite thing to do on his bike:

Cold Winter Nights Have Brought Us To This.

It's snowing right now.  Again.  Bryce is happily playing outside riding his bike in the snow.  This winter we've predicted that he not only has a future career in a Department of Public Works, but one located on a cold Northerly latitude, like Fairbanks, Alaska, perhaps.

We've got a pretty good sized snow pile in front of the house, thanks to living at the end of a cul-de-sac, any snow removal attempts get pushed up right next to the mailbox.  A couple of weeks ago the pile -probably about 3.5' high at the time- generated a friendly bet between the Mister and the Missus.  I mentioned that there will be some trace of the snow pile remaining on Kevin's birthday.  He gladly took me up on the bet and we determined the winner will get a weekend away.  (The loser, in case you're wondering, does not get to go along.)  When is Kevin's birthday, you ask?  April 26.  Needless to say, I have not made any new friends with my prediction of a long slow spring thaw.  Stay tuned for a late April announcement!

Until then, Kevin continues threaten to move to a warm weather state and I continue keep an eye on the weather forecasts.

Stay warm, all!
