I've seen warmer days...

So, I am sucking at this blogging thing, really. But I will try harder, but so many things happen, I move past them so fast, I feel like I forgot to blog. So, it is Feb. 28th, in Omaha and still about 20 degrees. The snow is piled higher than cars in places, which makes it a little dangerous in parking lots. The sun is out, so that is quite lovely, but about this time, I start to get a little crazy for some warmth. I think about Houston, alot, this time of year. I love more than anything to sit outside and eat, and people watch. Now, I sit indoors, and stare outside, pretending it is warm. I have been convinced a couple of times this year, that I had frost bite...
really, I am pretty sure I did have some one time. As a Southerner, you have no concept of how short of time it takes to get frostbite! Every year I say I am going to visit Houston during this time, so I can get some warmth and sit outside and soak up the heat. I have not been back since January of 2008...
Happy thoughts for 2010 - Toby's brother is getting married in Chicago in October, and Chicago rocks! Yiippeee! AND part traditional Vietnamese wedding, so lots of yummy food!
Seeing my niece this summer and taking her to our zoo - yeah!!! Adorable!!!

Finger crossed that March brings warmer temps and the snow forts melt away!

Cross Country Golf?

Courtney and I decided to go cross country skiing last Saturday, there was a class at UNO, here in Omaha, so we hopped on it! 4.5 hours of pure bliss! It was a great time, and we worked up a sweat,so went to Corkscrew afterwards to cool off ;)
We plan on skiing again, maybe not at the golf course this time though...
