Keeping warm and dry.

The weather had been kind of cruddy for the past month. Snow in late December was fun for the girls but it stayed cold after that and then the rain came back. We're finally seeing temps back into the mid and upper 40's. It was so clear yesterday that Mt. Adams was visible to the south of Rainier. Adams is about 60 miles SW of Mt. Rainier and I had never noticed it on the horizon before.

The Monkey Twins have been busy though. Grandma Linda (my mom) has been knitting the girls various things over the years and they got these sweaters for Christmas. We've been keeping them busy with trips to the YMCA for gym and school. Heck, between those two things, we're busy 4 days a week. And they both love going up to Seattle and browsing the Market. It's a fruit and veggie field day for them both. And it's nearly impossible to get out of there without buying a huge bundle of flowers for some insanely low price. I'm ready for the Proctor Farmer's Market to crank back up in April. Besides getting some really great local produce, there's live music and when the strawberries come back in season, the BEST strawberry short cake ever at Knapp's Diner.
