We've finally had our first really warm day! The temps were in the 70s and spring is definitely in the air. I caught the first little buds beginning to appear and the children have officially donned their warm weather footwear...yay!!!

I'm so excited! Every spring I feel a rush of hope, inspiration & motivation, and this year is no different. I plan on cleaning closets, washing windows, doing projects with the kids, finishing my quilt, working on my photography, scrapbooking (digitally!) and spending lots of time outdoors...
Ahhh...new beginnings...
