Mommy’s Birthday

I was spoiled by my boys again this year for my birthday.  Daddy made the best yellow cake and chocolate icing a girl could ask for and I enjoyed opening all of the presents (especially the replacement wine glasses that have survived since my trip with Carolyn to Napa Valley!) and cards from friends and family.  I couldn’t ask for anything more!

Finally! Snow!!

We had a fun winter this year and had TWO SEPARATE occasions where it snowed!  For our friends and family who are up north or in Colorado, you will laugh at this.  But if you live in Charlotte, you know that it’s not every year when you can break out a sled.  Sean swore he’d never even been in a sled (he was, I think back in 2010, and if I recall, it was mostly ice, not snow) and this was Dylan’s first snow experience!  Of course, we were laughing at our new neighbors from New Jersey – he was out shoveling his driveway during the thick of it.  We learned early on (and he will too) that down here, there’s no need to own a shovel.  No matter how much snow you get, it will always melt within a day or two, which is always well before any of the schools will be reopened or stores will be restocked.  But it was cute seeing someone with a shovel – reminded us of home!

We had so much time on our hands that we even made a gingerbread house.  Well, Dylan ate most of his candy (see the icing around his lips?) but Sean was very serious about the matter.

Folks, it was so cold that Polly took one look at the grass, turned around, looked at me, and peed on the front porch.  What a heathen.
