Snow Days

This entry was going to be Snow Day...as in singular...but adding the "s" is much more appropriate since every day in upstate NY from November 1 - (I'm assuming) around April is a snow day. Here are a few pictures of our house/neighborhood during the first few days of snow. I stopped photograhing after day 3 because, well, the snow still looked the same. We finally had a sunny day today. Frigid...but sunny....so we took Jackson out in his newly acquired winter clothing (thanks, aunt Cady, for the bibs and boots!!). He reminded me EXACTLY of the little kid from "A Christmas Story" because his mobility, when fully dressed, was quite limited. He did enjoy the snow while Matt and I stood by shivering. The cold temps don't seem to affect him like they do us. Soon we'll be making igloos and snowmen.

Can you see Mojito??

About Me

WELCOME! Our little family includes me, my hubby Matt, our son Jackson, and the pups Athena and Mojito. Day in and day out, we live a pretty normal life. This year we just happend to be living it in sub-zero temps in upstate NY, but that's changing in a few short months and we're heading back home to Memphis :). A few basic, but nontheless pertinent facts about me that you should know...I find cheese and crackers to be a perfectly acceptable dinner when I'm by myself, ice cream can be eaten any time of the day, cold weather is only good for skiing, animals have souls, flip flops are my favorite shoe, Jackson's laugh can make my day all better no matter what, fried okra is my favorite, someday I want to be permanently settled on a body of water, scuba diving is my favorite outdoor activity, 80's movies are awesome, I have the best friends and most wonderful family, if our next baby is a girl we're done, I want a Mac laptop, I get my love of cooking from my Grandad, and I have no idea what I want to do when I grow up...all in all, pretty basic stuff. Thanks for stopping by
