Sophie's Heaven

The Sun comes beaming through our windows onto the couch or our bed and Sophie is literally in heaven. This helps us forget that she didn't get exercise the day prior because all of the sudden she becomes the perfect dog when the Sun is shining in.

Snow Day

Why can't Utah have Snow day's, where if it snows an inch, the whole town shuts down and everyone plays in the snow?! It's just not fair that we have to caravan around in this crap. I remember earlier this year there was a "Winter Storm Warning" where everyone panicked and stayed in for the night; my work even closed the next day! but the storm turned out to be a dud. Then about 2 weeks later we got a HUGE storm and not as big of a warning but work stayed open and it was not fun.
Here is our cute neighbor Caleb

Fly Fishing 1

Spencer is SO glad he found a hobby to enjoy during the Winter. Yesterday he told me that if it weren't for this Winter hobby of his, we would have been moving to Arizona or somewhere warm. I wouldn't complain because I don't like the winter at all! Spencer has been Fly Fishing and is obsessed. It started around Halloween of last year when his friend Colter showed him a Fly rod that he made; they spent around 2 hours in the street practicing casting and Spencer was set to buy one. He's mostly been fishing the Prove River, practicing at the Sandy pond, & I think once this Winter he and Colter went to the Weber. I have yet to come on one of these excursions but I figure that I will wait for the Summer when I can sit in a folding chair in the sun, and read a good book while he shows off his tricks :) I don't know how they can stand being in this freezing weather! It sure is beautiful though.
