Okay, okay...I know we're in for much worse in the months to come. But, after such a lovely summer and early fall, this cold is a little hard to take! To everyone's delight though, the first snowfall was a bit later than usual: Nov 6. Now that I have a proper winter coat (similar to this one) and the winter tires are on the car, I must confess that I'm actually enjoying the snow. We just need a block heater and we'll be all set for the real cold!
Abner was thrilled to put on her snowsuit (snagged with mitts and a toque for $10 at a garage sale in mid-August. Best. Purchase. Ever.) and help The Dear Sweet Husband shovel the driveway that first day.
Now, here we are less than a week later and Abner is already asking when the snow will be gone. Poor thing. This is going to be a LONG winter.
Rowan wants the snow to melt too. He dropped a small, plastic brachiosaurus somewhere in our yard. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteNice score on the snowsuit!
Ha! Abner dropped the lock for our shed in the snow the other day. Poor Sean had to go hunt for it since, unlike a plastic brachiosaurus, it won't last until Spring.
ReplyDeleteI feel so grateful that I had to google "block heater."
ReplyDeleteGood luck, friend.
