Welcome to the Midwest in Winter

Well, we're not in Kansas anymore...actually we are (unfortunately) a LOT closer to Kansas now.  After four hours of delays and having to re-route to Indianapolis to re-fuel before landing in storm-riddled Chicago, we finally landed at O'Hare late last night.   At the moment, it's eight degrees here with a below zero wind chill.  Talk about a shock to the system.  For all of you who have been jealous of us for the past two years, I guess now is payback time!  Life has a way of balancing everything out, doesn't it? Yin and yang, yin and yang... The pendulum is always a-swingin'.

This is the view of our new backyard from our new room.  It's beautiful, really. However I am still a warm-weather island girl at heart and luckily, warmer weather is on the horizon as spring approaches and very soon we'll have a little cuddly baby girl to keep us warm (and very busy)!  For now we're just settling in and getting organized.  I have SO many blog posts to catch up on for you guys but for now we're going to kick our feet up in front of the fire and chill out, winter-style.

Love,
Brittany & Scott
