Yesterday morning, a little mist hung over the woods outside the back gate.
I'm linking this picture up with Clan Donaldson's first installment of Theme Thursday- this week's challenge was Sun Flare/Haze. Good thing we had some fog because they ain't no sun 'round these parts right now.
EDIT: Well lookie here! The sun decided to make a super quick appearance today after all and I. Was. READY.

It's working! The boy! He can read! I'm not ruining him after all!

Cecilia: I know what I'm doing! I don't need any of your tips and tricks!
Lizzy: Hahahahaha!
Paul: Not impressed

Go home, Michigan. You are drunk.
I grew up in MI and the pictures you post are of the MI I knew... that weather fluctuations are crazy, hey?! wishing you a God-blessed good day!
ReplyDeleteYour mist picture is so mysterious. I love it.
ReplyDeleteAMDG,

ReplyDeleteIdk if you saw my instagram (AGAIN!) today, but apparently you traded with Tucson because it dropped below freezing (AGAIN!) last night, and my phone said it was 34, but I grew up in Upstate NY and I know below freezing when I feel it, and at 7:30 AM it was no warmer than 31 outside.
ReplyDeleteSo maybe Tucson and Michigan got schwastey-faced together and they accidentally took home the wrong weather.
Or something.
You are on to something, woman!
DeleteI grew up in Michigan and I can still remember thinking it was cool that my wet hair would freeze into little icicles as I waited for the bus. I was so dumb. Anyway, nice shot of the gate it reminds me of a Thomas Hardy Poem called "The Darkling Thrush."
ReplyDeleteI leant upon a coppice gate
When Frost was spectre-grey,
And Winter's dregs made desolate
The weakening eye of day.
The tangled bine-stems scored the sky
Like strings of broken lyres,
And all mankind that haunted nigh
Had sought their household fires.
And it goes on from there...
Were you an English major at UD?
DeleteNo! This is the fanciest comment anyone has ever left, Kathleen :)
DeleteUgh. One minute it's 60 degrees and it smells like spring....the next..Hell doth frozen over. Wake me up for Easter, will ya???;

ReplyDeleteMost annoying. Winter. Ever.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear I shop at the same place as the Three Kings. I wonder if they do mPerks too?
ReplyDeleteLove your misty morning and your little archeologists. And hey, looks like it's Blogger that's drunk this morning, eating comments and multiplying comments.
ReplyDeleteI would title this post "Homeschool Dreams." That archeologist kit looks swell.
ReplyDeleteI love the misty morning picture. I'm envious that your 5 year old is reading, and mine is currently wearing goggles to unload the dishwasher whilst picking his nose. Who are Three Kings? The whole country is drunk- my temps look just like yours.
ReplyDeleteThis comment brought to you courtesy someone who desperately needs coffee.
Michigan must be like Kansas - it was 70 degrees on Monday and then it snowed about an inch on Tuesday with the high in the 20's - gotta love it!
ReplyDeleteI miss that about MI. Always dressing in layers. At least you get a break from the cold every couple of hours!
ReplyDeleteI love the archaeology picture. Cecilia looks like a master archaeologist. :D
ReplyDeleteLOVE that photo! Is it weird that I was tempted to make it my desktop wallpaper? It's just so darn rustic and pretty!
ReplyDeleteHAHA!! Our weather hasn't gone below 40...ever. I love your fancy pants picture. And how you know what the hell the eff stands for :)
ReplyDeleteMI you are just as cruel as MN.
ReplyDeleteLove all the photos...lucky you getting some sun today!
Can I just say how glad I am that you spell Cecilia correctly? People keep spelling my Cecilia's name as "Cecelia" and it drives me nuts - we are not in the UK, people!!!
ReplyDeleteLove that top pic. Seems the big girl camera is treating you well :)
ReplyDeleteI love all these photos! The misty one is incredible! Great composition...heh heh heh, don't I sound fancy?
ReplyDeleteThe kids are hysterical, and as for the scenery? Tres gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIt has been crazy here in Michigan this week!
ReplyDeleteThe first one is very pretty.
ReplyDeletewe got that archeologist kit last year as a gift. I thought, who would buy this? Nothing but a pile of dirt! it was too messy for me. Sorry. Looks like your kids liked it though. :)
If it had not been on clearance, there is no WAY that Melchior would have bought it!
DeleteWhen my kids learned to read I had such an overwhelming gratitude mixed with a sure knowledge that I truly had not much to do with it.
ReplyDeleteWe had some crazy weather swings here too -- I think of it as moodiness, but I guess it could be tippling :)
