April Showers??? -By Jeff

Ahhh, Christmas time! It is such a wonderful holiday! Everything about it is absolutely wonderful! The cold night air, the snow covered trees, and......wait.....what's that.....it's the middle of APRIL!?!? You wouldn't think so with a snow storm every other week that brings at least a foot of snow.
In the past my spring experiences have been filled with warm days, brisk nights, and lovely, non-frozen, flowers. However this is not the case as you can see. I have neglected to take advantage of the past two snow storms and decided that if Mother Nature wanted to give me lemons, well then, I would make some lemonade! In this case she gave me snow so of course I made an awesome fort with an even cooler arch!!! That's right, I made a freaking arch! The arch isn't big enough for someone like, let's say, Matt, but it works wonderfully. And if you are wondering, yes, that is a statue of Angel Moroni on top, courtesy of Camille who most kindly assisted in the building of the structural genious which we lovingly call the Arch de' lux.
Go ahead and gawk if you will. I did, for several minutes in-fact. It's freaking awesome and you all know I do not blush at compliments. So.....feel free! Peace.

Wow! That was such a fantastic post and even better that it came through no- I mean little- effort from your wife! Also the picture of the flowers is lovely. What a beautiful arch. It's like the 9th wonder or something. Haha, the angel Moroni is frawesome. That's right. I had to make up a new word to describe its greatness (i.e. freakin + awesome). Well done.

It's weird. Ever since we put up the angel Moroni up on the arch, it stopped snowing
