Brrrrrrrrr....

Although Winter has not *officially* begun (we still have 10 more days of "Fall"), unofficially it is here...and it is here with a vengeance!
.
We got a little snow last weekend (4" or so - just a "dusting" really) but Wednesday we got HAMMERED and we got hammered good!
.
Most of Maine got between 8" and 10"..... up here in our little section of Western Maine, near the NH border we got a good 12" PLUS (I say 15" but Auntie D said no way). For the icing on top...it turned to rain at the end giving the snow a nice, hard, heavy crust about an inch thick.
.
FUN?!? Welllll, not really.
.
Today...it's FREEZING! Currently 24.8 degrees but the wind? Oh, the wind is brutal and chills me right to the bone!
.
Enough of this pseudo winter...I'm ready for spring :)
.
Busy weekend coming up - Iz has a birthday party tonight for HC's youngest boy and a place with a whole heaping mess of bounce toys. Should be a BLAST! Then tomorrow is ballet (of course), then a visit with Santa at the Library (if Iz is brave enough to even look a him, that is), then VG is coming over to babysit Iz while Hubby and I go to a Christmas Party at HC's house. This is a BIG deal. Iz LOVES VG :) VG will be 15 on Valentine's Day (not sure HOW she got to be so OLD!) and this is the first time she'll be watching Iz up here at our house...all alone...at night. They're planning on making cinnamon applesauce ornaments and I plan on renting them a movie and making pizza for dinner. Should be a good night for the girls. PLUS, Hubby and I get a "date night" out partying with some of the nicest, coolest people we know.
.
Have a great weekend all!
.
TWO MORE WEEKS 'TIL CHRISTMAS!!!! (yipe!)
