fail better...

Did I SERIOUSLY only blog three times last year?? 

Three. 

Fail.

Okay. Moving on.

We have been getting some actual winter weather here in the Heartland… not just the wind and cold, but a little bit of the pretty stuff (lots more snow than usual & these little ice crystals too)… so of course I forced my grandma outside to grab a handful of the cold stuff (what!!? Gracie doesn't have thumbs!).

and then she let me snap her picture before she froze her little buns off... 

thanks G! for being my pretty little hand model :)

baby it's cold outside...

I can't help but think of one of my favorite songs when I hear this phrase… 

and who does it better than the fabulous Zooey Deschanel??
ummm, I'm thinking no one.

week twenty :: baby it's cold outside

Laura :: me

can't believe tomorrow's Christmas Eve!!  everyone get their shopping finished, 

or do we have any of those last minute shoppers out there?
