A "Spring" in my Step

We've just experienced a momentous occasion! This week was the first time we had any hopes of Spring. I was practically going out of my mind thinking that Winter could last any longer. I'd read friends' blogs about going to the park, I saw green grass...I thought I would never see those things here (well, I still haven't seen green grass...just yellow). I am one whose joyful moods are greatly enhanced by a sunny day and greatly disheartened by prolonged cloudly days.



These past few days my soul has been singing! I feel like smiling all the time. I even got a sunburn on my collarbone...that's really saying something for even exposing my collarbone! The kids and I celebrated by spending a whole afternoon outside. Lincoln rediscovered outdoor extremes (aka pick axe), William basked in the sunshine, Annie followed happily, and I sat in a chair and read and read...and read! Joyful! There is nothing like a breath of fresh air after months of hibernation.

Lanette, you are so dang cute! Is it time for another date yet? At the Stampin' Up party my Lanette reservoir was full and I realized how much I needed that! I am addicted to you, but the reservoir is getting mighty low. Maybe I need to come out and see you new house. Call me, or vise versa...
Love ya!

Oh I have some SERIOUS spring fever too. We had ran and clouds today down here, not as bad as flurries but we've sure been spoiled with some awesome weather this past week.

How do you like "Sarah's Quilt"? I've read "These is My Words" and really liked it but haven't gotten to the next one yet.
