Snow, snow and more snow

Just about everyone we've asked here in Boise if it snows a lot during the winter has said no. It usually only snows a few times in the winter. Well, it snowed twice before I went to AZ for Christmas, at least once while I was down there, and now it's already snowed 2 more times in the 3 days that I've been back! I really do like the snow - I think it's very pretty (until it gets all dirty) and it just really makes it feel like winter (unlike the 65 degree sunny weather I encountered in AZ).

Today, however, was the first time in over 10 years that I have actually driven on snow covered streets. I do not like it! Of course, after it takes me 20 minutes to make a normal 10 minute drive, I realize my truck is rear-wheel drive - which explains while I kept sliding around on the turns!

So, when I have to go back out later today, I can take my car (front-wheel drive is so much better on snow), but it's been sitting outside all day and is now covered in snow, and we don't even have a snow brush/ice scraper thing to clean the car off. Let's just hope the sun comes out today and melts everything before I have to drive again. Alas, I just looked out the window and it is still snowing.

But, really, folks, I do love it here. Becuase yesterday, when it was only 30 degress, but very sunny, I had to take my coat off because I got too hot. How cool is that!

This picture doesn't have anything to do with anything, I just wanted to post a picture. I now realize where Logan gets his ability to fall asleep anywhere!

I like to look at snow but don't think I could live anywhere where it snowed. That pictures cracks me up.

I love the picture. I also love snow. I've been dying to go up north and play in some.

That's hilarious that they both sleep with their mouth open!
