In recent years we haven’t had snow in November. Well yesterday was my birthday, and after sleeping an extra four hours (which never happens anymore), I woke up to a fresh blanket of snow! We had almost three inches at my parents’ house in Northern Michigan. Best birthday gift – best parting gift? Snow on my birthday.

There won’t be snow in the jungle, and I won’t get to play snowball “fetch” this year with Jax, so we made the most of it.

Playing in the snow with Jax and his little buddy.

In 72 hours, I’ll be on a plane from Ft. Lauderdale to San Jose. Almost here 🙂
