light and breezy...

I have been staying way lately because I have been dealing with a lot recently and I didn't want to be all down and out on the blog. Things are slowly getting better and I am very grateful. I let a few "not so upbeat" posts sneak by but I can't say I am sorry I did. It is very therapeutic for me. This is not only a family blog but one where I can let go and be myself and say what I am thinking. So, I have been thinking....I haven't posted about anything fun lately. So here it goes...Lets Beat those January blahs especially with the new snow we woke up to this morning...what is up with that!?!

Things to look forward to this summer.....

Flip Flops and Painted Toe nails

Reading a good book on the patio while the kids play in the pool

Chick Flicks

nights out with the girls

going on a drive

getting ice cream

shaved legs (hee hee)

play dates outside

going to the park

no coats, hats, scarfs or gloves

iced tea and lemonade

longer days

camping

vacations

going for family walks

the smell of a freshly mowed lawn

visiting with neighbors

Popsicles

BBQs with friends

the smell of sun screen

summer nights

bare feet

These are just a few of the many reasons why I can't wait for summer!



Another thing my blog has been short on is pictures. Not much picture worthy going on lately. Here are two pictures from last year that make me long for summer..........
