It's raining

It's pouring, the old man is snoring.

We never left the house yesterday. As a matter of fact, we never got out of our PJ's. Your parents stopped by last night, not so much to check on me, but to see if my foot looked as bad as the picture "made it look," according to your mom. Perhaps I wasn't being whiny enough about it, but they were shocked when they saw it and I think, mostly surprised that it doesn't hurt to walk on it.

Your mom and dad are headed out of town tomorrow for a week. They are going down to Orlando. I hope the weather clears up and that they can have a nice time.

As for the girls and I, we have been enjoying tacos, popcorn and movies.

Olive you.

We watched Peter Pan last night and the girls were really into it, but it was a bit long and about the last half hour of it, they went berserk. They started playing indoor soccer.

This morning I decided we needed some Krispy Kreme in our life.

Autumn said she wanted to go to the doughnut factory.

Everything was going quite well and it was nice to be out of the house, but all of a sudden....

Bam! Foot to the face. Obviously, I had no idea that was about to happen or I wouldn't have taken a picture of it. Poor Autumn cried and her eye got pretty red, but it seems fine now.

I am going to pick up a little around here (the girls made quite a mess of the playroom) and then get ready for the Veggie Tales Movie night at church. Hopefully another nice get away from being at home.

Has time stopped?

I love you.

Your current wife and favorite airman. xoxo

The count: 118 and 113 Krispy Kreme-ing without you.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
