Seriously?!

This is what we woke up to this morning...
































It is June, right?! That's what I thought, but around here it keeps acting like January! At least it's supposed to be super nice this weekend. I could use a little sunshine about this time of year. Hopefully it will be nice on the Fourth of July too (my favorite holiday) even though it has snowed on this day before...even in my lifetime...I remember it (I think I was six)! And our little tomato plants appear to be alive still (we're still crossing our fingers) so all is not lost yet.

Oh, and I saw this on a couple of my friends' blogs recently and we thought it was pretty funny, and true. I didn't know that a day or two later it would hit so close to reality...in June.
