SURPRISE!!
After a few snowdays and false starts, the kids in my class surprised me with a birthday party this afternoon...they made me cupcakes, popcorn, and home baked bread..then they showered me with handmade cards, flowers and a spa gift certificate...such a wonderful class..such a wonderful teacher...I am a lucky woman!

She's over it!!
"We went to Lauren and Taylor's for a double birthday dinner to celebrate Dave's and my birthdays (which are 5 days apart)...after dinner Dave worked for a couple of hours on their driveway and sidewalks with his snowblower....Lauren was most appreciative as she has had it with winter, and slip sliding all over the place in her "cute" little car!

Black and White Brunch...
Thanks to my dear friend, Traci, for hosting a beautiful brunch for us this a.m. She really outdid herself, right down to my favorite lemon cake with Black and White birthday candles! I am lucky to have such wonderful girlfriends and that is truly the best gift one could get for her birthday, now isn't it!

And now for a little dark madness...
OK, all this white stuff is wearing on me..my cabin fever reached a new pitch today...so after digging out Leah and I went to the movies to see "The Black Swan"...strangely fascinating little tale about the dark side and madness...note to self, never put your daughters in ballet lessons...thank god we saw it in the light of day...would have been afraid to enter out into the cold dark night after the credits rolled!

I have become one of those people...
I always hate to see Christmas lights hanging off houses long after the holiday has come and gone..and yet, mine are still up on my stairs and shrubs. I missed my opportunity a few weeks ago, and now they are buried under a foot of ice and snow...with more snow to come...I have become one of those people :(

An appreciation of snow (and husbands)
"To appreciate the beauty of a snowflake it is necessary to stand outside in the snow."...although today, my husband may not agree with me. While he toiled in the driveway for four hours this morning..(and yes, Leah and I helped)..I then went for a walk this afternoon with my camera...this was a beautiful storm..down to the last snowflake!

Thing 1 and Thing 2....
"I know it's gray and the sun is not sunny, but we can have lots of good fun that is funny."-Dr. Seusss (The Cat in the Hat)...Today I was working on an art project in class, but when the kids saw me drawing out Thing 1 and Thing 2 they asked if I would draw some for them to color...pretty soon, Thing 1 and Thing 2 were joined by Thing 3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9...lots of good fun!

Rosanne Cash @ Infinity...
"When my dad died, alot of songs came...and they still keep coming."-Rosanne Cash...we went to Infinity Hall in Norfolk last night on a snowy, wintery evening to see her. She has been a favorite of mine for a long, long time. Spending a few hours in an intimate setting with her and her equally talented husband/guitar player, listening to her anecdotes about growing up with a famous father and the legacy he left for her with his "List of 100" songs was magical. A beautiful evening indeed!
