April Showers?

The beginning of the month saw loads and loads of rain. I'm happy to announce that for the past few days the weather has been absolutely gorgeous! A perfect 80 degrees I believe. It got so warm one of the days this past week that my oldest informed me that "Mom, it's just far too warm to do schoolwork today. My brain just isn't working." Since we worked ahead the week before it was ok to take this one day off. Easter Sunday is drawing near. Do you think it's about time I started working on mapping out that Easter egg hunt? Or maybe I should actually help the cards make it past my kitchen table. And perhaps I'll get the Easter baskets done before Easter morning. Do any of you ever have this problem? I'm not sure, but something tells me that I'm not the only one with this issue. :)

Sunshine!!!

It's absolutely gorgeous out today! Spring is close....I can smell it. People around this house are becoming more productive. I guess that means the hibernation phase is over. Thank God!! Today alone we've accomplished immunizations in the morning, wedding outfit shopping, cleaning out the car, playing outside with Milo (the new pup), and schoolwork. That's a nice chunk of getting things done. Cleaning out that car was a bit nightmarish....but I made it through. I've decided that the lovely children shall not eat sticky things in the backseat ever again, because light tan seats tend to stain pretty badly. I've accomplished everything that needed to be accomplished today. Now let's go in for that extra mile. It'll be nice to get a head start on dinner.
