Spring has Sprung!

Although this picture was taken back in December, my Camilla bush out in front of the house is loaded with these beautiful blooms. This past week has been beautiful. We have had temps in the mid 70's. It has been wonderful to be outside. I have been very stressed out due to car repair issues, but in the midst of the stress I have been able to take the convertible out with the top down and enjoy the weather which has relieved the stress a little bit.
We sold our Escort in the midst of the van being in the shop all week, so we had to put the convertible that we got from the auction on the road. The girls have loved me picking them up from school with the top down and the music playing. Bailey got in the car the other day and said really loud, "I love my life"....I think she liked looking cool to her friends. It was funny. She sits in the back of the car, just laughing and singing really loud. It has been kind of refreshing to see her childhood wonder and excitement.
I know it has been a while since I have written on here, but I have had so much going on with just minor day to day errands and to dos. We have a long weekend this weekend, so I have vowed we are going to relax and "reconnect" as a family. I have told the girls not to make any plans because I just want to hang out around the house. I am looking so forward to it.
Todd will of course be busy with it being Valentine's weekend which is his busiest day of the year, plus the Daytona 500 is this weekend, so he will get the travellers too. I hope it all goes smooth for him.
Well, I hope you all will have a relaxing weekend and that the weather will cooperate too.
Enjoy!
