Today

The morning after our fun in the snow, John Thomas ran to the back door to check on "Snowy" and found this....

eyes, mouth, nose and buttons gone, hat fallen and head drooping, Snowy wasn't in good shape - and we're hoping that John Thomas isn't traumatized. Michael, who is typically pretty good at recovering these things, told him that Snowy was praying. This didn't help. at all.

McKenzie has since declared today as 'the best day ever.' Something you should know and may have guessed, especially if you know her, is that each day trumps its predecessor as the 'best day.' example - today trumps yesterday trumps snow trumps spelling bee trumps disney. you get the picture. Today was awesome and I happen to agree with her....for now. After a crazy busy week and a half or so, we spent the day playing games, watchin' a little Saturday mornin' cartoons (they're really not all that anymore...what happened to tom & jerry?...), visiting Narnia, drawing & coloring, doin' some puzzles, cooking, playing star wars (because no day would be complete without Obi-wan and Vader) - with a little laundry and home maintenace thrown in (our front porch, in case you're interested, is 'settling' - and, therefore, in need of caulking and such. I'm not a big fan of settling as, apparently, our back porch/patio had done the same when Ike rolled through town...and, wow, we found out all about the reprecusions of settling when left to itself....sooooo, yeah, we - and by we, I mean Michael - got that all taken care of in anticipation of the next hurricane....) - all with windows and door open to enjoy the amazingly unseasonably warmish, fraudulent weather. It was a good good, much needed day. and we're all WELL...knock on wood. Hope you, too, had a good Saturday!...
