summer

I just noticed something very funny. The outfit Joel is wearing in the banner picture is the same one that Ethan is wearing in the post below this one. Okay, I know I need to update the banner. But see, that is the reason I blog (sometimes) instead of scrapbooking. I hate making this blog cutesy and change things all the time. I barely have time to write a coherent sentence.

This summer has turned out to be a very good one, very sunny and very hot. I never appreciated summer until I moved up here. In SCalifonia its pretty much sunny every day except for fall and the blasted Santa Ana winds. You never appreciate a wonderful clear, sunny day until you have lived a whole year in Seattle. The summers here are absolutely perfect. Not too hot, not too cold. Although natives tend to complain about the heat--when it gets above 80 the mossbacks will melt, apparently.

We're off to visit family this next week but then back to enjoy more of our great summer.

Is it October or June?

This is the headline I woke up to:
Colder than Siberia!

Grrrrreat. It is colder here than Siberia or Fairbanks.
