Snow is Coming

It is suppose to snow tomorrow.  That is the bad news.  Summer has come and gone with astonishing speed.  I want to pout and refuse to acknowledge that it is time for the weather to grow cold and wet.  However, no matter how much I pout Mother Nature just goes about doing her own thing. Dang her! Anybody know her address I would like to have a chat with her, in person? 

Good news, snow this time of year doesn't generally last. In the next few weeks you will find me reporting every kind of weather from hot to cold, from windy to wet, to dry and freezing.  Utah falls and springs are always divine mysteries. 

Good news, I'm sure my dear blog readers have had about enough of my garden stories.  So for the next few months you get a break. Hey keep the cheering down.

Good news in lieu of garden pictures I will be sharing pictures of snow.:) Ummm...why don't I hear cheering? Hello.... 

Come on it is going to be so much fun, instead of pictures of flowers you are going to get to see pictures of angels......




Instead of pictures of tomatoes, green beans, pumpkins you will get to see pictures of snowmen... 



You are a "quiver" with excitement I know you are. (By the way did anybody get that quiver, because it's cold.. oh well I lease entertain myself)


Anyway back to the good news, instead of pictures of green and beautiful plants you will get pictures of snow covered branches.....



and roads that say, "Stay home, drink hot chocolate."

Best of all instead of pictures of Izzy sitting in the grass you will get pictures of Izzy sitting in the snow.....
 

I know, I know but really you must control your excitement. The neighbors may be watching.  Anyway as I prepare to deal with the snow tomorrow I just wanted to get everyone excited for my upcoming post.  Admit it this is much more exciting then the flower pictures.  




Yah, I don't think so either.  

Dang mother nature!!!!

My kids have never been in the snow, isn't that weird! The closest they've been to it is when our neighbors brought some home from Tehachapi, they made a hill with it and they rode my snow board down it. Sad and a little white trash, I know! Looks chilly, are you ready for that?

I love the flower and snow pictures. Question: suppose you lived in zone 9 and could grow flowers pretty much all the time, and suppose your beds were woefully flower-light, what would you grow in such a temperate climate?

Just curious... no real reason I was asking...
I was making breakfast this morning, looked out the window, and it was totally snowing. What is up with that? I am not ready; I feel like it just barely stopped snowing from last winter. Oh well, what do you do? I love the pictures; they make my teeth chatter. By the way, very cool background; I reallly like it.

So, what's up with the bike training? We're suppossed to start out riding for three hours? What's that all about? I'm not sure about this. Are you sure about this?

At my Age

I saw this quote the other day and had to smile. It has been interesting finishing school at my age. I have had this feeling more than once that I am a little old, and finishing school is something I should have done a long time ago. Usually I remind myself that we all have our own paths to take in life. My path had me marry at 19 and become the mother of four beautiful rug rats by 27. Marriage and children defined me more than anything. I became more aware of my talents and abilities. I really didn't know who I was before I became a wife and mother. Waiting until now to finish my degree gave me time to figure out who I am. Well, at least to have a better idea of who I am. I love being in a classroom, I love learning, and I love helping others learn. My inner nerd does little happy dances every time I learn something new. Each person on this planet has their own God given talents. We have a responsibility to find our talents and to make the world a better place. How old you are wh...

Registered! What Have I done?

I'm just home from the gym. My legs are shaky, my shirt is sweaty, and my muscles are loose. Saturday, I biked almost 30 miles on a hill before getting off the hill and finishing up at 35 miles. This morning I went for a nice 70 minute jog. (Legs are not HAPPY!) Last night before going to bed I registered for "Little Red." Paid my non-refundable registration fee. Needless to say I'm what you would called, "FREAKED!" Holy Cow what have I gotten myself into, a 100 mile bike ride.  Do you know that this ride will actually take me out of one state into another and back. Does that sound insane? Who gets up and says hey lets ride our bikes to that state over there and back? I think I have officially lost my mind. How does one know for sure if they have lost there mind? Short of registering for a 100 mile bike ride. Do you know people do these all the time? They do them for fun! Maybe that is the definition of insane. Well what is done is done and I have 16 weeks...

Come and Gone

Christmas has come and gone the final hours of 2010 has began. I'm sure that I have a 2010 reflection post in me somewhere. But! Our 2010 is ending with family, friends and the baptism of my baby. It is so hard to type that sentence even harder to believe that we are baptizing our last little one. So the end of this year is going to come and go without a reflection post. I have chili to cook and family to visit and.... I did want to share with you a quick look at our Christmas We spent Christmas Eve at Grandma's house. At 80 years old she keeps the party rocking and we enjoy the time we get to visit with everyone. (A quick picture before we left. I try to get this picture every year on Christmas Eve.) Melting snowman was our little Christmas Eve joke since all of our Christmas snow had melted. (The stockings after Santa's Visit) This year we enjoyed a brown Christmas. The snowflakes all disappeared and the hopes of a White Christmas were in vain. ...
