Winter finally came

Having our first real blast of cold air. Think it's only going to get to the mid-40s today. Back up in the 70s by Wednesday, which is good. We're going to spend the weekend at Tybee Island. Will be too cold to get in the ocean, but we're looking forward to getting out there and exploring.

Not really much to report. Nathan had a sleep over on Friday. The boys got up the next morning at 5:30 a.m. Yes, you read that right, 5:30! They had slept in the living room, and Eric had fallen asleep down there in the easy chair. Eric decided that he needed to wake me up at 5:55 to tell me the boys had woken up at 5:30. Thanks, honey. Actually, Nathan has woken up at 6:30 or earlier for the past 3 days. Can't get him up this early on a school day - noooo. We moved Nathan's mattress into the living for the sleep over, and still haven't moved it upstairs yet. Nathan's enjoying the 'trampoline'.

Eric's working half-days for the next 2 weeks. He gets to be the acting first sgt. We'll spend some time trying to knock out some of Nathan's wolf badge requirements. Since Eric's going to be at school in January and February, the two of them better get started on Nathan's pinewood derby car and raingutter regatta boat. I'm crafty, but I don't do wood putty and sanding.
