Friday- snow in spring and rock n roll at 10:49 AM

So remember how it was spring and we were all wearing sandals and t shirts and playing at the park? yeah, that's done now, nature decided it's winter again. Its like giving someone a chocolate Sunday , letting them take a bit and then throwing a pile a dirt on top. It's just rude and unnecessary. Now i love Ogden and i have to admit that the snow does make things look incredibly beautiful but i have a pile of sundresses that are just waiting patiently to be worn and all i want to do lately is sit in the grass and eat trail mix. Is that so much to ask for? W

Until nature decides to make it spring again ill guess we will just have to look at this as an opportunity to make out very last (please be the last) snowman of the season. it will be a small, muddy and probably sad looking snowman but it will be a snowman none the less. We could also make our last snow angel, have our last snowball fight and sled our last hill. Spring will be here before we know it ...right? right?

Today is Friday which means there are so many things happening i think my head may explode. Here's a list of tonight's events to gear up and get out there and support local!
