Snow!!

Congratulations to mom+SIS+Auntie for pulling a two-fer and winning another movie line contest, this time from Nine to Five. I love that turkey line. Way to go!

The next movie line is:

"Build the jacuzzi and we will come, ok"

Good luck to all.

Well, I know this is not a big deal to those of you in colder climates, so excuse my excitement but: WE'VE GOT SNOW HERE! IN MARCH! That never happens. I was up late last night knitting and catching up on Grey's Anatomy episodes when I looked out the window, and this is what I saw:Look at how big the snowflakes are in this picture, especially the one on the lower right. You must understand, we might get snow here once every 2-3 years, usually in January. Since it is so infrequent and doesn't hang around long enough to be a nuisance, it is greeted with childhood glee by everyone in my household. I immediately ran upstairs and woke up the Count, who giggled like a little kid. Here are some views from our bedroom window:And the snow was still here when we got up this morning:In fact, it's still coming down like crazy as I write this. Part of my excitement comes from the fact that if it wasn't cold enough to snow, it would be pouring down rain, and the snow is so much prettier.

It's also an excuse to bundle up my baby just so:I didn't think Sproutie would get a chance to wear the snow gear that was handed down from ZimDee, but there he is in all his glory.

I'm not sure how long the snow will last, probably not even through tomorrow, so indulge me in this playful bit of whimsy.

My love to all.

HAHAHA, hre I come to correct someone elses answer. I am very sorry but when it come to movies, titles and names, I am a huge perfectionist. The real title is Muppets From Space. Im sorry Steph, Muppet Babies is that cartoon we used to watch in the late 80's. Probably the only thing I clearly remember from the 80's. Please, I dont deserve a prize. This is me resting my mind knowing I corrected another person. Hahaha.

Hahaha. Excited about snow! I wish I still felt that way. Usually a new snow means I need to shovel the driveway. And for those of you who has visited our house, the driveway is gigantic. But I like the snow, it is pretty.
