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...

Pinewood Derby or Bust!

If there is one thing that Brent and I both agree on.  One thing that we both believe is essential to the proper development, growth, and raising of a son. That no boyhood would be complete with out.  It would be participation in the Pinewood Derby.   Yes, on this one thing Brent and I are in total agreement.  A boyhood is not a true boyhood until a boy has built a pinewood derby car and then competed in a pinewood derby.  It is that important!  I'm sorry if you have never had the opportunity to live in a house filled with the air of pinewood derby. If you have never had the opportunity of watching a father stand to the side as his son uses HIS power tools. The opportunity to take a chunk of wood and see that inside the wood is the makings of a CAR.   You wonder why men are so obsessed with cars, with how there made, and how fast they go.  Well if you have ever brought home a pinewood derby box kit to a home with boys and men all your questions would be answered. Once the car is b...

The Kids Today

S. is now 11 years old and is counting down the days until she turns 12. She is in the fifth grade and says math is her favorite subject. She stays pretty busy with swimming and soccer. This past year in addition to a regular AYSO team she has been competing on an All Star Team. She has really enjoyed it and is really looking forward to a tournament that will take place in Hawaii this July. She still loves swimming and is still competing when she can. A. is 9 years old and is the professor of the house.  He is our silent man whose brain is in constant motion.  He reads and reads and reads and soon will read me out of house and home.  He enjoys video and computer games, and he loves playing sports.  In January he made the city swim team and continues to play soccer, basketball, and anything that I let him.  Al will soon be eight.  As in next week soon.  The best part of school she says is 3:25 when pressed for a better answer than that she say...
