Gray gray gray

It seems like I am surrounded by gray here. And although I like the color gray I wouldn't mind a yellow sun and a blue sky.

Here is a list of all the many shades of gray here in Bothell Washington:

-Sky

-clouds

-rain

-asphalt

-trees (seem gray)

-fog

-mist

-my walls are grayish green (my fault)

-Am I complaining too much???

The thing is is that it's just a long dark winter here. It goes on forever. Dark all day and then night comes and you realize you haven't really had any light for hours, days, weeks sometimes. I know that I'm being overly dramatic, but it's a big deal for a California girl.

Enough of that!

We went skiing on Friday night and had a good time. Gillian and her cousins rolled down the snowy hill as if it were a grassy hill on a summer day.

There is a guy in our ward who teaches guitar. Drew had her first lesson on Saturday. He only charges $20 and he's even going to take on teaching Gavin on his bass guitar. When Drew found out that we will be spending $40 on Saturdays on lessons she thought that maybe we shouldn't do lessons because then she will surely never get a horse. Silly girl.
