toasty.

i've always been a fan of this time of the year...as the temperatures begin to drop and you can feel the brisk winter weather on the horizon. i love it. it makes me look forward to the days when i'll need to bundle up in sweaters, scarves and jackets, with my face pale white with rosy cheeks. and this past week we've started to feel the beginning of it as temperatures have dropped to the low 70s-high 60s. myka gets as excited as a little boy about the morning fog and the fact that tonight he needed his sweats and sweatshirt to feel remotely warm while taking the dogs outside. so as we shivered on our walk, we decided that tonight would be the perfect night for something we've been looking forward to...our first, nice roasty fire in our fireplace.

and what a nice, warm, romantic family night it turned out to be for us. and when myka opened up the front door later on in the evening, yume and i burrowed and cuddled into each other more as a very, very cold brisk draft swept into the living room. the cold is just around the corner and we can't wait!!
