SPRING!

This winter has really taken a hold of me this year.  We have had some really warm (like 40s) temperatures this past week.  I can't quite explain the relief I feel when the weather finally warms and the snow begins to melt.  It's like that feeling when your kid has a fever and it finally breaks.  No more hats, mittens, coats.. no more layering! The snow will probably be here until Aprilish, but I'll take a tease day here or there whenever I can.

Craftiness:  Made the cute yarn lanterns for the b-day party. 

We celebrated Halle's 2nd birthday last week.  I have so many posts about how my kids grow too fast and how I hate it.  I'll just reiterate that sentiment:  I really wish she would stop growing!   For v-day, Jason got me a Cameo--a cutting machine.  I was able to create the cutest things for her owl themed b-day party.  I also made her a cute skirt to match the color scheme.  It was a hooot!

Here are few pictures of our happenings:

Building a box-car!

Kayla loves to help daddy move snow!

Kenna spoke about her art at a school board meeting.  Proud of my girl!

What do these pictures say to you? I can't stop laughing. The girls felt the need to pose I guess.

Today it hit 40 degrees--warmest day of the year so far. It's so nice to see the snow finally melting. I cleaned out my car today while the girls played on the driveway. It's funny that 40 seems so warm here, but in AZ we would have been snuggled by the fire. I can't wait to take the girls to the park and go for walks, have BBQs, and just sit outside and watch the sun go down. I love the warm!
