Weather

The high today was 51. The day after Christmas. In Minnesota. It's the 4th time since 1905 the weather has been this warm. I blame it completely on the fact that we finally broke down and bought a snow blower.

It's been an unusually warm fall and entrance to winter. Well, I say unusual because I only have one other winter to compare it to. And, compared to last year, where we'd already been through a complete blizzard, and easily had 18" of snow outside, this feels a little weird. Part of me felt a little cheated that I move to the "frozen tundra" and didn't even have a white Christmas. But then again, walking outside today in a light jacket didn't feel too bad either.

Heading back in time, I took advantage of one of the awesome fall days we had, put it together with some leaves and two cute little people, and managed to get some pics. Definitely don't claim to be a professional by any means, but I'd rank them above the average snapshot.

I'm not sure when this little guy decided to get so big, but it seems like all the shots I take of him lately remind me how quickly time goes by with these guys, and they literally do grow right before your eyes.
