The ducks unfroze!

So the weather has slowly, and I mean very slowly, warming up and today we noticed in the field behind our apartment that there are ducks hanging out in the melted snow puddles. I don't know where they came from but I think they were frozen under the many feet of snow. I'm glad to see that they have come back to life. Anyway, this past weekend was pretty good, we went to a John Schmitt concert, well more like I dragged steve to it. I think he enjoyed parts of it, but it went longer than normal so he was getting pretty antsy towards the end. At one point in the concert John asked if anyone knew jazz piano. There was an awkward silence and Steve decided that was the time he needed to get up and go to the bathroom. So when he got up to walk out John called him out thinking he was going up to play with him. Of course Steve made a joke about needing to go to the bathroom and everyone thought that was hilarious. I learned after that Steve planned to do that! Anyway, like I said before the weather is warming up to be in the 40's which isn't exactly warm compared to California, but for us it's a lot better then below freezing. But of course the warm weather also brought the wind so we're still stuck inside but we're counting down the days until the semester is over and we can go outside.

  1. I'm glad to hear that the ducks have come back to life. Poor little ducks smothered in that freezing cold Idaho snow for months never ending. Ha! It doesn't surprise me about Steve. Didn't he get that idea from a Sinbad show he went to years ago. At least it spiced things up. You gotta make do with what you have sometimes and make your own funnies. Leave it to an only child. We're so hoping that your job will allow you guys to come home for a few days on break. We're trying not to hope too much so we won't be too disappointed if you can't. We miss you both. Love, Lisa
