Baby It's Cold Outside

I couldn't agree more --- sister, it's cold outside! (and Kate does look super cute in her PINK ski gear!) Although winter is truly a week away, it sure feels like it with an arctic blast from up north and temps in the 20's.


I have decided to embrace winter in all her glory... puffy coat, tall boots, fuzzy hat, and cozy gloves. In the morning, I give my little ones fifteen extra minutes just to bundle up before school. My seven year old still inquires, EVERY morning, if he can wear shorts to school. My answer remains consistent, "Are you crazy?! You are NOT wearing shorts to school!!" The girls love wearing their Uggs and William has agreed to wear socks. We will be ready for winter when she arrives just before Santa.


And, if the guy below doesn't make you smile, while strolling through town on a brisk afternoon, I don't know what will. He certainly made me smile. :)


Well, I've got to get wrapping and not like Run DMC. "It's Christmas time in Hollis Queens, Mom's cooking chicken and collard greens. Rice and stuffing, macaroni and cheese. And Santa put gifts under Christmas trees."
