I may finally save a groundhog...

Not sure if you saw yet, (you should have!) but Punxsutawney Phil DIDN'T see his shadow today.  SPRING IS COMING!!!!!!! Yes, I think this is a questionable way to determine whether spring is actually on its way, but nevertheless I am quite excited if it's true!  In his honor, I've decided not to run over a groundhog the next time I see one.  Thanks Phil!

Anyway, we had a nice taste of early Spring today.  This morning, upon wakening, it was 50 degrees outside.  Yep, you read that right!!  It's now in the 30s again with snow, but for awhile it was gorgeous! Oh how I cannot wait for spring!  To not be stuck in the house 24-7, to get to explore things with Jacob for the first time... I'm so excited!  And to be able to get out of the house without putting on 8 layers and scraping off the windshield.  Oh yay!

Although I do think they need a new plan for detecting spring.  A groundhog? Really? Groundhogs get shot, not predict weather.  Sorry Punxustawney... you'll need something else to draw tourists when I become Queen.  We'll just have to brainstorm on what will be our new "spring detector."  Any ideas??

What was your reaction at Phil's prediction this morning??
