Our forecast went from possible snow and ice to just rain. Rats. We live in beautiful rolling hills, surrounded by mountains and we don’t get any snow or ice. Pout. Pout.

One more week before school, clubs and activities fill our schedule again. Tomorrow looks rainy, but Saturday we may reach a record high (66F) for January. It might be time to load up the tricycles and skateboards and visit the park.

Christmas is a week away and it’s 70 degrees outside. Someday I want to take the children someplace with real snow. No ski lodge or such, just a cabin with a fireplace inside and lots of snow outside.
