Cold Pup

our poor little pup has been cold this winter.

she wears a hoodie but apparently that's not enough to keep her cozy.

she's been refusing to get out of her bed in the morning and curls up in the tiniest ball when she's sleeping and even gets little shivers.

i felt so bad for her today that i did this.

and she slept and enjoyed that little heater soooo much!

she's the biggest wimp ever but so dang cute!

Midnight Run

what is the coolest thing we could possibly do at the stroke of midnight on our anniversary?

buy the harry potter complete 8 film collection on blu-ray OF COURSE!

and some butterfinger jingles and mint M&Ms because it's the most wonderful time of the year!

enjoy the many faces of Matt!

burrito style

it's starting to get cold at night which means it's time for me to start sleeping with my own blanket.

why?

because Matt is a huge blanket thief!

this is what i woke up to on saturday morning.

somehow during the night Matt rolls himself up burrito style in our king size blanket while i'm shivering away on the other side of the bed.

not cool matt, not cool at all.

snow day

last thursday, December 30th, Mesa, AZ got snow.

unbelievable right?

this only happens once every katrillion years.

so why aren't i happy about it?

because i was practically the only person in the valley not to see it!!

very depressing.

but i have been loving the chilly winter.

we never turn our heater on in the winter because we want to soak up as much of the cold as we can and this year there's a lot of cold being soaked up.

we actually have need for our slippers, snuggies and electric blanket.

and all this cold is really making me wish we lived somewhere else where the cold wasn't only going to last another couple weeks before the 100 degree weather returns.

don't know if that'll ever happen but a girl can dream.

cold weather makes me smile

this morning i remembered the real reason we have a blanket on our bed.

apparently it's not just there to get kicked to the edge because it's too dang hot but actually to warm you when you wake up on a cloudy morning and it's a little chilly.

huh.

i can't wait 'til the day comes when i have to keep an extra blanket on the bed because Matt will steal the one we have and i will freeze to death if i'm not prepared.

winter, can you please come faster?

i'm ready for blanket stealing fun and hoodies and socks and opening the windows in my house and making Padme wear her sweatshirt and cider, etc.

please come right now!
