First, we came back from Europe. Second, Alex got a big promotion at work. Third, we got this cute little puppy* (omg omg omg). Fourth, we had a big winter storm (in October?!) and Halloween was cancelled.

We lost our canopy for our little yard house, because we weren’t prepared for this storm at all (I laughed at everyone who said it was going to snow a foot in October). Oh well, now we will be creative and build a replacement next year!!

We made a snowman and a snowdog because it was the perfect heavy, wet snow for doing such. It was also the perfect heavy wet snow to leave us without power for three days. Three cold, long, cold, dark days.

Alex made a snow dog, but then Fritz (the puppy) ate his head. Anyway, I just wanted to say hi, and we made it through the storm, and coming up are some eventual posts about new furniture additions that I haven’t gotten around to posting about. Hope you all have power!

*Love him? He’s and English Setter, 12 weeks, and two of his brothers are still at the shelter. Go adopt them!
