First bud of the season 2/12/2010

I think mr. Groundhog is wrong. My inside hibiscus plant thinks it is
spring already...

Little game of cat & mouse

Bright blue and snow covered

Pretty view across from my work today looking into the forest preserve
area. Not sure how much snow we really got, but it was enough.

I made a mess

Trying to post from my phone so I apologize for any formatting issues.  Anyways after alicia went to bed tonight she silently woke up and got all of her toys out.  

This has been a frequent occurrence over the last few weeks but today we caught it early.

When daddy opened the door to her room she says... "I made a mess!"   And while she did, it was a quite organized mess.  I'm kinda proud of how she organized her cards.   The rest of the room was messy too, but the cards area was pretty cool.

Lets hope this posts properly!

Crunchy snow

The dusting of snow this morning was crunchy and crispy looking... You
could really see some individual snow flakes, it was kinda cool in the
sunlight.probably look cooler with my big camera but you know I'm lazy
this morning and iPhone camera was enough for now... Lol.

In love

Really this has been such a great investment already. 1 month of
courtship with my new All-clad pans and I'm in love.
