Better get some rainboots, too :-)Rhiannonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10743293325890261078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7404856.post-67621366206685791842012-01-01T15:19:09.448-08:002012-01-01T15:19:09.448-08:00never heard of graupel 'til now, either. thought it was a word made up by groupon.dapotatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01636556067344382571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7404856.post-41241702322864458662011-12-31T11:23:01.115-08:002011-12-31T11:23:01.115-08:00We've had nothing but rain for three days which is pretty rare for Bend. We finally woke up to snow this morning. Have fun with Jen!

You gotta hold my hand." Duh, who does he think I am? A newbie? Please, he's one of the only humans under 18yo that I like. But he's piqued my curiosity, so I ask, "What would happen if I don't hold your hand?" And he says with grave seriousness, "A car will come and I'll go SPLAT like a bug and my guts will be everywhere." Wow, that was graphic. I asked my sister about it later and she was like, "Gotta tell it like it is; he needs to understand."gretchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15097896846352067618noreply@blogger.com
