Look at what we found!




We took a spur-of-the-moment trip down to St. George last weekend to escape Heber's 30 degrees-and-snow forecast. It was lovely down there, of course - about 78 degrees and sunny. Rob and Mindy and the girls ended up coming too. Dave went shooting with Evan and Rob while us girls went to the playground, where Abby and Megan conquered the stegosaurus riding toy.






When we got home, this is what we found in the window well of our basement:



And no, we don't own a cat.

Our day.....will come...


Remember this pretty picture? (How can you not? It's just right there below - mocking me!)

I want to know what happened to spring in Heber?!?


I know spring has sprung in other places, because every time I tell someone what the temperature is here, they respond with "Really?! It's ___ (fill in the blank with any temperature above 65) here and sunny today!"


The locals tell me not to get too discouraged just yet - they all guarantee me that it'll snow at least once in June. Sigh.



Happy May Day!
