Missing The Warm Days Of Summer

If you happen to live in the Great North, 
there inevitably comes a time when you start to hate winter, 
and you feel like the cold wind and snow 
will never end. 
I haven't gotten to that point yet, but I'm sure it's getting close.
We're in March now, 
the supposed beginning of spring, 
and we are expecting ANOTHER storm by the end of this weekend.
 6-12 inches is predicted.
I'm hoping for 12 inches. 
I still need to go cross country skiing.

But....

Adam and I have planned for the dreaded 
"Winter-is-the-worst-season-ever-why-do-we-live-here" 
phase by planning an mid-season trip!

To Texas!


These two tiny people are our friends Sam and Cydney.
They live way down south,
and in about 11 days, 
we are going to wear some shorts
and join them!
Adam and I are both pumped.
And, we are traveling with our good friend Rachel!
Even more fun!
This trip has been getting me so excited for summer.
Like, super excited.


See this pizza?
It's peanut butter, pepperoni and jalapeno pizza that you get at Zorbaz's in DL.
It's so wrong and so right at the same time.
This is the food of summer.
And I can't wait.


Reading with coffee out in the summer morning is a pleasure I've almost forgotten about.
But, hopefully I'll remember how to do this when we
are down in Texas.
Let's hope so.


And I love traveling with this guy. 
He's always a good partner on adventures.
Or in general.

Winter In The Flattest Place On Earth

It's quite impressive really. 
How the white goes for miles and miles, without and break in the landscape.
After a while, you feel like you are starting to go crazy.
Winter, it's awesome.

Blizzard Sunday!

Sundays are normally our Date Day, but since we are having a crazy blizzard, we are just going to hang out at home and just cozy up together under the blankets. 

Sorry if that's too much detail.

This is what it looks like outside!


Snow snow snow snow.
I guess it's supposed to snow all day today and tomorrow. 
I love winter storms.


I also get really bored and start taking pictures of weird eyes. 
My mom said that my eyes sometimes look yellow.
Like I'm dying.
Thank you, mom.


Nora definitely has yellower (??) eyes than I do.
Freak.


Snowsnowsnowsnowsnow.
I love living here.

Let's have an awesome Date Day!

Finally, A Decent Photo!

Let it be known! 
I finally got a good picture of James that didn't include him licking himself in the unmentionable areas or glaring at the camera!

It's a freakin' miracle.


It's so much better than this little beauty of a picture.


God, he looks pissed.
