And so it begins. . .



I'm making it my goal to update our blog weekly if possible. . . course, if we're not interesting that week we probably won't :)
We had our first snow of the season midweek this week, luckily it didn't stick, and so we all rejoiced, even though the temperature was low enough to feel your ears burn after 15 minutes of walking outdoors.
Unfortunately yesterday it began again. Jason thinks it will go away, but I think different. It's already later in the season than last year's first snow and we've had beautiful weather up to this point, so I figure we're in for it.
Other than that the week has been pretty quiet. Alisa is trying to decide what she wants to do now. She is refusing to take her morning naps and is exhausted until Jason finally "forces" the issue in the afternoon. It's been hard for me as I try to balance being a good mother with being a good student, but we'll survive!
Jason also had a great adventure this week. He was pulling a manual car forward just a few feet to work on it in his stall and froze mentally when it kept rolling and he saw a slow motion picture of his tool chest lifting up and over the hood of the car. Needless to say he's gained the nickname Crash at work and everyone had a good laugh at his expense. No damage happened to the car except a few small dents, and there were a few dents in his toolbox which were easily undone. Poor guy.


We also went on a great date this week. We decided to try a new restaurant and choose a place called the "Fantastic Bagel" which has an amazing assortment of styles and choices. It was pretty good! Afterward we went over to Florence Chocolates and got a free turtle with our starving student card (similar to Entertainment Book). Afterwards we went to Walmart, and spent way too much money outfitting Alisabeth for her first real winter (last one doesn't count because she couldn't interact with the snow).
Alisabeth loves the winter weather, she got so mad at us when we brought her in last night. It's going to be a fun season!
Love you all!
