Deluged

Well, it seems as if I got my wish... sort of. Our temps are at least out of the single digits, which is a definite improvement. We got a few days of temps in the 50's, but we got almost 2 inches of rain. Consequently, this is what our yard looks like:

Alas, we're in for more snow. Spring is not quite here yet... but at least it's not 5 degrees. At this point, I'll take what I can get.

Having nothing to do with the weather... I read a great book over the weekend. It's called The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester. Really, it's quite excellent. I would recommend you go out and get your hands on a copy. The storyline is great, very imaginative, and keeps you reading 'til the very end.

School work is ever on-going for Cory. There are 4 national tests that you have to pass in order to be licensed as a chiropractor. Cory has part 3 this weekend, so everyone keep your fingers crossed for him :)

I'm glad it is somewhat warming up for you! Spring fever gets old after a while. I have been disappointed at how cold Alabama gets in the winter, as I had high hopes, but I should just appreciate what I get.
By the way, remember those cinnamon rolls and the beef stroganoff you would make at Ricks? I had the recipes but have since lost them. Could you post them or email them to me or whatever will be best for you? I still can't forget how yummy they both were!

Have you gone out and splashed in that huge puddle yet?

I hope Spring comes soon!! I'm glad it isn't 5 degrees anymore...that's no fun at all. You can go puddle jumping in all that water...sheesh! We miss you! I shouldn't tell you that it was 70 degrees over the weekend, but then again maybe I should. Then you will come and visit again or maybe even move out here. :)
