winter is here. here to stay.

Today I woke up to white, lots of white.  Although I look outside and I want to complain and I have to tell myself that Iowa has been good to me.  It is December 7th and as of yet this year we have not had anything white that has stuck around..... but I am pretty sure that this stuff is going to stick around seeing that the forecast for the next few days is 90% chance of snow and on Wed. we get to 1 degree. Wahoo. cant wait.  So although I hate, yes hate the cold I need to be grateful for making it clear til December with pretty warm winter weather.  Bring it winter.  I am really going to try to love you a bit more this year.   and if your would.... please pray that Iowa winters aren't as bad as everyone claims they are.  

On another note.... my little nephew Henry had his birthday this weekend.  He is now the cutest 2 year old ever. (well he was til he got his recent haircut. jk)  Here he is in his Mexican Wrestler Halloween Costume.  My little sis did an awesome job of making it.  Pretty sweet huh?  

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HENRY
