We now have about 8 inches at our house, which is less than 100ft above sea level. And it’s still snowing. Snowy house To distract myself from worrying about my flight tomorrow, Maddy and I went sledding. It was sweet. Maddy also built a snow daschund, which is also pretty sweet. Setting up for the [...]
Watch funny videos on the internet! These are two of my absolute favorites and I hadn’t watched them in a while, but they’re just as good as they were the first time I saw them. Enjoy! Here’s the original, “Lazy Sunday”: [vodpod id=Groupvideo.1881816&w=425&h=350&fv=] And here’s the West Coast response, “Lazy Monday”: [vodpod id=Groupvideo.1881828&w=425&h=350&fv=width%3D480%26height%3D392%26mediaId%3D11196%26affiliateId%3D0%26javascriptContext%3Dtrue%26skinURL%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fflash.revver.com%2Fplayer%2F1.0%2Fskins%2FDefault_Raster.swf%26skinImgURL%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fflash.revver.com%2Fplayer%2F1.0%2Fskins%2Fnight_skin.png%26actionBarSkinURL%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fflash.revver.com%2Fplayer%2F1.0%2Fskins%2FDefaultNavBarSkin.swf%26resizeVideo%3DTrue] Lizzy
