So hubby bought a nice new one and is convinced that it won't snow here any more this winter. Love your progress report.

I was just complaining the other night when we got all the way down into the 50s. I guess it's all relative, right? Although I don't understand it, it's colder here in AZ in the 50s than it was in Missouri in the 40s. At the same time, it's just as hot in MO in the high 80s as it is here in AZ during the summer when we hit 110 degrees. I just don't get it. The little boys and their new shovels are just so darn cute. Hope they get their wish soon.Ellenhttp://injoyinmylife.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-59370839774245788762011-12-06T07:58:04.149-06:002011-12-06T07:58:04.149-06:00Burrrrrr!!!
