Winter Flashback!

When I woke up this morning I saw that we were back in the dead of winter I got a little depressed. My whole day was kinda crappy too. But I decided to change my attitude and appreciate the "fun" things about winter. For anyone that knows me my idea of winter is on a sandy beach far, far, away from snow and cold weather! I don't know why I live in Idaho. So I decided to recap some of the fun things that happened this past winter. Winter to me really starts around Thanksgiving and should end right after Christmas but I'll go a little farther since winter still seems to be going on.
In January we went on a cruise to Baja Mexico with Andrew's family. It was really fun! We had some good times and great memories. Our ports were in Cabo and Ensenada. In Cabo we went on a zip line with the whole family (minus grandma and grandpa :).

The family in their gear!

We had tons of fun and did a lot of stuff, but one of the highlights of the trip was when Andrew got hypnotized on stage at one of the shows. He was hypnotized when we went on our other cruise last year, but what was bad about that no one else but me got to see him and I thought it was pretty hilarious! This time was even better because his whole family saw him do moves that you don't see unless you're under :) He thought he was Michael Jackson for a short time. He danced like how Andrew thought Michael Jackson would dance. We still laugh about it with his family when we bring it up. It was such a fun way to start out the year!
Another thing that entertained me this past winter was ice fishing. Andrew introduced me to it this year and I really liked it. Maybe cuz you do nothing and then sometimes reap the rewards. I don't know. But it is cold sometimes. Unless. . .. you are wearing your husband's fashionable coveralls :)

Sometimes I get bored. . .

Fishing is something that Andrew loves to do and I'm starting to like a lot as well. He does lots of stuff with me that he really doesn't like, but is a good sport about it. So this is starting to be something that we can do more together.
Oh one more thing. . . On our way back from one of our fishing trips it was so bright that I asked him to get my sunglasses that are on the side of the door's cubby thingy. Well as he was driving he handed them to me not knowing the condition of the glasses. Andrew doesn't really pay attention to details all the time and it took him a few minutes to notice my glasses. . .

Maybe this will scare winter off for good!
