The spot





We had another break in the weather on Friday and it was relatively warm for January, esp. considering the cold, cold weather we have had in the past couple of weeks. Luke and I were at home staring at the walls (well, maybe I was doing that while he played) and decided we needed an adventure.

So...we loaded up our buddies and went to Grassy. Grassy is a wonderful lake. I have spent lots of fun times at 'the spot' with friends and all of our dogs. It was also the first place I took Steve the summer that we met.

The girls had a blast romping around, digging in the soft dirt and getting wet in the nearly frozen water. Luke and I enjoyed taking deep breaths of fresh air that tasted like spring and watching them run around.

We have had a fun weekend, too. Steve spent some time with his family and we all got to hang out with Uncle Glenn last night and this morning. We went for pizza and laughed as Luke chewed on big pieces of crust and checked out all of the goings on of the restaurant. Glenn was determined to get some ice cream for Luke so we HAD to go to DQ after dinner and get some treats. Luke got one little bite (I am a big believer in limiting sugar until the battle is lost which will happen soon enough!) He has got a great uncle and we always enjoy Glenn's company :) The best was having him read the Terrier B-ball game highlights to us...great quotes about a great win.

I spent most of Saturday with my mom which was a treat. We saw Revolutionary Road - really good, really dramatic and heavy - and went for a brisk walk. We set a record for speed due to the CHILLY air but it was great to be out moving in the fresh air.

Yeah - he will finish his bottle while he gets his diaper changed. It is very efficient which makes his daddy proud.
