Temperatures have dropped below freezing a few times this month, and the kids keep hoping we'll get snow on our very own yard. Unfortunately, every time a storm rolls in the temperature jumps up into the 50s and 60s.
The forecast called for rain this afternoon, so the weather was very pleasant this morning and the kids took their wheel toys for a spin out front. Joy challenged me to a bicycle race around the block and completely clobbered me . . .
. . . then she sat down to read one of the Fablehaven books she got for her birthday.
Daddy took advantage of the nice weather and took his wheel toy for a spin, too.
When he got back, Anna begged him to take her for a ride. They had just enough time to ride around our neighborhood before the raindrops started falling.

Isn't winter just so depressing? Everything looks dead, brown, and ugly.
But then springs comes and you feel alive again, as do all the trees, flowers, and other kinds of nature.
Yes, and I never really experienced the dead side of winter in Southern California. Halfway through our first January in Arkansas I'm still surprised when I look outside and everything looks so dead. I'm sure spring will be a wonderful, welcome change.
