all outing plans were canceled today when i looked out the window and saw this:
it may not look like much, but the street was pretty much a solid sheet of ice. and those bits of snow in the grass? more chunks of ice. snow is not soft and fluffy in mizzou, it is hard and crunchy. 13 degrees is not pretty.

pale winter skin was exposed...
trashy beach novels were read...
scrumptious summer food was consumed...
color drenched espadrilles were brought out of hiding(but legs weren't shaved)...
and fun was had by all!

scarlett is SO cute...look at her sitting up!!! Nice idea...we've pretty much stayed inside all day too. Good thing my valentines day flowers are still alive to make things in the house a little less gloomy!
You are the most fun mom ever!
What a great idea! How do you manage to look so cute all the time anyway?! I don't miss the Missouri crunchy/snow/ice. But I am also tired of the Utah fluffy snow too, I just want some SUN! And a beach party...I'll be over soon!
How fun! You have to do something fun to forget about how awful Missouri winters are.
Good thinking!! I would have never come up with that. You are way too creative!
Wow scarlett is growing up so fast! I can't believe she is sitting up already! What an advanced child...but what can you expect from her gene pool?! I don't envy the snow and ice. OK Martha Stewart, what a fun beach party!
wow, that's is fabulous. My Mom would do things like that sometimes. I love it.
Sure don't miss those "solid sheets of ice" (but still trying to get use to this Utah snow- tons and tons of it)How fun you are and very cute sandals!!!
What a fun idea! Now, if you were in Savannah still you wouldn't have to pretend. And you've an ocean.
Fun party. Do you have a shoe fetish? You always have the cutest shoes!
This was such a cute idea, I will start looking at your blog more often to see how to be a more creative, fun mom. I hope Thomas liked the bubblebath wallpaper!
you really are the funnest mom ever! and i love your new blogspot address. i think it sums up your blog quite nicely. your sun-drenched espadrilles are making me long for summer weather (and new summer shoes)!
