Ever the Ham

It is a dreary, dark, rainy day here. Definitely up there in my list of depressing things is the first seriously rainy day after New Year's. All the holiday lights are down, the decorations stowed away, the trees are abandoned curbside, everyone's back to work and our spirits are just a bit tired. Plus, we had a late opening today, due to some lovely black ice. Now my day feels all out of whack and I'm having a hard time focusing (if only I had a weather event every day to blame my lack of focus).

So I thought I'd post a few funny pictures.

Leo is a funny guy. He loves to make people laugh. I think most kids do but because he's my kid, of course I find him particularly funny.
I took this one yesterday morning. He called to me from the basement playroom, so that I would come to look at the ensemble he had assembled.

This is over the winter break. He had been sitting on the floor in this chair but for some reason decided it would be better on the couch. I think he wanted to be by the dog but she took one look at that chair and took off.

That darn pirate hat again. It gets me every time. Just another typical day at our house, you know, eating oatmeal, being a pirate.
