Happy Spring

My phone says it is 28 degrees outside, but it is technically spring. So, Happy Spring!! 🙂

I love tulips and they of course seem to be the universal sign of spring, although we definitely do not have any tulips blooming around here yet. Actually, we don’t have any tulips in our yard. I wish we did, though. Maybe I should make that happen. I can see the day lilies starting to sprout though! Just the very beginnings of green are starting to push their way up. It’s always funny when that starts and it’s still so cold, but it is a welcome sign of warmer days ahead.

I’m heading out to take Asher to an 8:30 a.m. swim practice. Ethan had a 6:30 a.m. (indoor) soccer practice this morning!!!! Fortunately, Ivan volunteered to take that shift. Jeez. I know they are just taking any field time they can get, but 6:30 on Saturday?? Yikes. I think this is the last week of these morning practices, though.

Spent last night putting together some details for our Memphis trip. I like to make a little document with “important info”, like our Air BnB address, times/ places we have tickets for, list of other things I’d like to fit in (and open hours, etc.). It just makes me feel a bit more organized and like I have everything in one place. This is obviously a very short trip, so there’s not even that much to do.

Rest of weekend plans…

• Finish A Gentleman in Moscow! So close.
• Some cleaning is needed, I think
• CHIPOTLE for lunch. Has been way too long. I’m entering a state of withdrawal.
• Help boys clean out their closets (maybe) and clean the hamster cages
• Something fun? Movie? Walk with boys? (Will be warming up) Hike? I don’t know yet.

Have a great weekend!
