March

As in - holy crap it's 75 degrees in MARCH!!! 

We've been spending a lot of time outside.  I've been spending a lot of time walking the yard, looking at all my daffodils that have bloomed, my forsythia that has completely blossomed in all its golden yellow goodness and my grass that needs to be mowed - already.  (OK, it's WAY too early for that)

All that is to say, we're just enjoying life over here - taking lots of walks with the neighbors (we call them rolling happy hours because we all grab a drink and walk and talk) lots of runs with my hubby, lots of bike rides with the kiddos and lots of ball throwing with the boys. 

I took off the entire week of the girls spring break and  Brian and I are going away by ourselves for a few days and then the girls and I will hang out and do fun stuff - I"m hoping this amazing weather holds.  I wanted to go see the Cherry Blossoms, but they are in full bloom already and will likely be done by the time we could get down there the first of April. 

I picked out all my plants and started organizing what will go in all my pots.  Of course, I'm doing this in my head because with my luck I'll move my trees outside and plant some containers and we'll go from 75 degrees in March to 6 inches of snow in April.  We had our one and only snow storm in October so it's only fitting we should close out winter with a spring blizzard. 

 I officially have Spring Fever.

It's been weird here too! I mean, we don't get snow, but we generally get something below 70. Enjoy the surprise Spring, and take lots of cherry blossom photos.
