Well, it really did snow yesterday–finally.  I kept waiting around yesterday wondering where this nasty weather we were supposed to receive was.  It was dark and cloudy, but didn’t even rain until the afternoon.  Then last night it started to snow.  It is actually still snowing lightly here.  It’s the perfect kind of snow where it doesn’t stick to the sidewalk or road, but there’s a nice little layer (about 2 inches) on the grass.  I’m sure it will melt quickly, but I like it.  I know a lot of people could be complaining about snow after we’ve had such nice weather, but I am enjoying this little cold spell.  You don’t want it to get too warm too fast in the spring.  That’s one of the things I like about spring in Utah.  It could be wonderful and warm, and then it snows!  Diversity!

I guess I just like it cause I’m lazy.  I’ve got a lot of yard work to do out there.  I’ve already filled up two garbage cans with dead stuff I should have taken care of in the fall, and lots of little weeds.  On Monday I bought a huge bottle of round-up from Costco and sprayed all the little grasses and weeds invading my flower beds, and Ryan put the pre-emergent on the lawns, but we still have tons of work to do to get our yard ready for the warm weather.  So, if it’s snowy, we can’t work outside!  See, I’m really just lazy.

Oh, and here’s a picture of our two new little birdies.

They’ve been renamed Skyler and Sammy, and are really quite cute.  Megan is loving having them as pets.  One of them had an unfortunate incident where John caught him, pulled him out of the cage and proceeded to pull out all his tail feathers the other day, however.  Megan was a little bit more understanding when I reminded her that she did the same thing to Sundance when she was about his age (what is it with those tail feathers?).
