highs & lows

it's amazing to me how one day the weather can be beautiful, a high of 70 degrees & light wind, then the next day is rainy & cold. don't get me wrong, i love the cold rainy weather. i love curling up in a blanket with the fireplace or candles going, but at this point in the year i would just love to be outside. last saturday we went out & bought bikes and we have only ridden them once! ever since then the weather has been cold & windy & not the perfect biking weather.

i love spring for the weather, but i also love it because i get in the mood to do spring cleaning. i know you probably think i'm crazy, but i love cleaning closets out and organizing my house. my poor husband thinks i've lost my mind, but if it were up to him we would keep everything! i love the thought of getting rid of clutter & junk we don't need & putting things in containers & sorting through things just excites me! being organized just calms me. if only we had a container store in okc, my life would be complete.

snowed in

it's been a lazy day at the jeffrey house! blizzard 2011 hit us this morning & we are officially snowed in! i really love the snow. i love that it gives me an excuse to do nothing & i can't feel guilty about it. i did get a little bit of laundry done so the whole day wasn't a waste!

most of our morning was laying in bed watching the constant coverage of the weather. i know they kept saying the same thing, but we just couldn't turn it off! i'm so glad neither one of us had to go to work! after our busy weekend, we needed a day of nothing together.


we did get a little adventurous today. we wanted to see what happens when your throw boiling water in the air in 8 degree weather.



i really didn't think anything would happen, so you can tell by my reaction i was sort of surprised!

steven did venture out a bit & took some pictures around the house. i'm glad he did instead of me!

i just found out i don't have to go into work until noon tomorrow, but if it's still bad we're not going in at all. steven's not sure if he's going into work tomorrow or not. we're not even sure if we can get our cars out of the garage! i'm hoping for a repeat of today!
