Our First Snow

Well, we had our first snow at the new house today. Unfortunately it didn't last long enough to stick but we sure had some interesting weather today. The day started out cool and breezy (when I say breezy I mean a constant 30 mph wind with gusts of 50+ ) but it was only 51 degrees so it was still nice just chilly. At about 1:00 we had hard snow pellets, then lots of wind, more snow pellets and then huge gigantic snow flakes for about 2 hours. It is now almost 10 pm about 30 degrees with a wind chill factor of about 10 and clear as a bell out there. Hmmmmm. That is really all I have to say about that. It is freaking cold!!!! But you should see the stars and the mountains if you can stand to be outside long enough to look. :)

Out of the Stone Age

Well I am finally back, I had to take a few weeks off to get moved and then we had problems with the phones lines but I am back from the stone age yippie! We are mostly loving the new house but have had some issues that have made this a difficult move. Most of the issues have been with the plumbing, for the 1st week we had our keys we only had half of it working and hot water only in the bathrooms. We also didn't have any heat for the first week and although we have heat now we have a lot of breaks in the ducting so it isn't running as efficiently as it should. The guy is outside preparing an estimate right now for $2100.00 yikes. Pretty sure we can do that ourselves to. Todd says living here is like being on vacation and I agree but more like one of those vacations where you work like at a dude ranch or something. I haven't seen any cute guys bringing me fancy drinks and nobody has stepped up to give us a massage although I could sure use one. Anyways I am cutting this one short just wanted to let y'all know we were still here.
