Snow Snow and more snow!

We had such a wonderful windy warm weekend last week and now I am stuck in the snow. Its a good thing I got new tires on the truck and put out all of my spring decor, because I would have major confusion. Now I know this is a typical Utah spring but I have been in Utah for 36 years of my life(all my life) and I still am so surprised to see the snow in March. I am not a skier so this white stuff does not thrill me. It means shoveling and putting on layers and layers of clothing and hanging all those layers out to dry once they get wet. My kids enjoy the snow and I like to watch from the window with my cocoa in my hand. I can't wait for the real spring and summer to arrive. I like the rain to an extent but definately more than snow.

Yesterday we went to Ashleys track meet at her school(IN THE SNOW GRR). She took on some challenges that she was prepared for, she thought. She did the 300 meter hurdles and the 1 mile and the 4x1 relay. She did really well but all of the events were back to back almost and she struggled a little with being so cold but all in all she had fun. I forgot my camera(typical) but I got a new cell phone with a camera and I took a picture of her doing hurdles but I only got the shot of her after she jumped so I will try to figure out how to post the picture on here. I was also very cold and I chose to stay in my seat instead of trying to get a closer shot. I don't care if we are in a blizzard next time, I will make sure I get my butt out of my seat and get a better shot.

Yummy Brownies!

I just love brownies! Ashley and Sugar made these the other day. They were so yummy they did not last very long.
