Lo, How a Strawb' e'er Blooming
Remember my awesome birthday present? Welp, I've been eagerly anticipating the arrival of this wondrous sight. Just in time for Christmas! Please don't be jealous, my Iowa friends. Just come and visit me. :)

"Unique"
We've been thinking for a long time about whether or not to homeschool. We're still on the fence. In the meantime, I like to make fun of homeschool families (in the jealous, admirous way). Check this out. Very funny.
No White Christmases in Texas
Today felt like the middle of May in Iowa. It reminded me of recess in elementary school: wearing shorts for the first time that year, basking in the sun, playing tether ball and chasing boys. The warmth of the sun on your arms and legs. Feeling summer around the corner. Smelling the sweet warm breeze and knowing that school is about to yield to slip n' slides and popsicles on the back deck. Yes, that was the way it was today. A beautiful 77. Too bad I'm pining for a White Christmas.
Today the weather man said, "..it's warm today but watch out, it won't be warm on Christmas...it'll be in the low 60's! brr!"....At which point I imagined my friend AK from Iowa being violent against a person for the first time in her life. (Let's just say she's not a big fan of freezing toes, car scrapers, slipping on the ice on the way to work, etc.). It's a good thing she didn't see that or we might have a very injured weatherman on our hands. I heard this song for the first time today on the radio. He almost makes the case for enjoying a warm Christmas, but I'd trade it for a real one anyday...

My Brother's Breakfast
My brother made this a few years ago. He visited this week and I asked if I could have a copy of this. I found out it's on Youtube! Love it!
