WINTER

(Can you guess where we were on my 30th birthday this year?)

I have somehow managed to not find anything to buy with my birthday money since May! Shocking, I know. I tried hard, let me tell you, haha. I bought a beautiful purse at Nordy's when I was home in VA with the boys in June. But I took it back because really, who am I kidding thinking I'll use it much when it'll just end up with cracker crumbs and leaky sippy cups staining it. I also tried to use my money on a cool pair of blue flats that had rosettes made of zippers on the toes. As hard as I tried though, they just didn't feel comfortable enough, so back they went!

Well thank goodness I had such trouble, haha, because now that Matt has his super nice computer (for his birthday), I figured it was high time for us to have a really nice camera in this house. Being the granddaughter of the owner of Rudy's Camera in Witchita, KS, I figured I needed to catch up with the rest of the family! Since my dad was visiting over Thanksgiving, I asked him to find one that'd be good for us, and a week later, BAM! Hellooooo pretty camera :-)

So now I have no excuse not to keep this blog going, haha.

In honor of our fourth and (PLEEAASSSSSE!!!!) last winter here, I give you my list of How Cold Is It? from our first winter. Nothing's changed, lol.
