Another Emily (not mine) is sick and needs help.  As posted by Emily at Not That You Asked.  Help if you can financially.  If not, then pray.  Or do both.

On Saturday afternoon, Honey and I left the kids with my brother Lance (Who lives with us) (He is eighteen and does not eat a single fruit or vegetable…any bets on how long he will live?).

We put Miss Emily down for her nap and asked Uncle Lance if he would take a photo of us.

Us

We then got into the truck and squealed and shouted and hollered about the FREEDOM drove away.

On Wednesday afternoon, we had a freak snow storm.

One of the Web definitions for freak:

freak (n.)

A thing or occurrence that is markedly unusual or irregular: A freak of nature produced the midsummer snow.

Snowy deck
It most certainly is not midsummer, but it is now officially spring. The snow storm was entirely my fault because I had gone and hauled out the deck furniture. My bad.

I had a little chat with Miss Spring. I told her to pick up her socks and DO HER JOB. Old Man Winter has been having his way with us long enough. She needed to suck it up and bring in the sunshine and warmth. It should not be so hard to give Winter the boot; he is a crotchety old man, after all.

I thought we had come to a peace of sorts. The sun came out and melted the snow. It was still nowhere close to being balmy, but we at least the ground was back to brown instead of white. I even managed to catch some shots of those two boys of mine on Thursday afternoon while Emily was napping.
