Well it seems like Spring has arrived and with it new and fresh things to do! I said before that I love every season and I really do, but I am excited for each season as it comes and ready for it..

Today I was hoping to get started planting our garden, but I have Strep Throat (blah!) and so I haven't been feeling very well the past two days. I am starting to feel better tonight so I hope to get quite a bit done tomorrow. Thanks to Roger and Jan, my Father and Mother in law, I have a nice space to start my garden. They took care of getting someone here to plow it up and everything... wonderful! I haven't had a garden since I helped with our family garden when I was a teenager but I am soooo excited to have it!! The girls are really excited too, they have been impatiently waiting to get out there. :-) I will keep you updated with pictures!!

This is the first year I have done Spring cleaning in a long time. I am pretty consistant with the FLYlady system, so I never usually have too. Somehow there have been things left with my detail cleaning and I really just want to get some extra things done... so I've resorted to Spring cleaning. And although I don't really plan on doing this ever again ;-), it's a rewarding feeling to see my list whittling down! Tonight when we came home from Lauren's ball practice, I was feeling a little better, so I cleaned some windows and sprayed down the front porch. Nothing better than shiney windows.

Lauren is playing softball this Spring and she is having a lot of fun. She has been having a few practices a week and her games start the end of May. She really likes to play- I think it's because she really likes to do those things with Daddy. She drew a picture for him on his birthday of the two of them playing basketball together and she said that is her favorite thing to do together.. so sweet.

Also, I have a new bathroom!! YAY!! I really do love our house, I am so thankful for it and we got a really cute, good size house for a great deal. Most things we have had to do it are just cosmetic, paint and carpet those kind of things, but there has been one thing that has really driven me nuts since we bought it (6 years ago) and that is the bathroom. The house is really old so it was not built with a bathroom, so when they added one, they added in the typical old way, a tiny one right beside the kitchen and that's it. We do have a half bath in our bedroom, but it doesn't really count because it's smaller than a portapot. (It does come in handy with lots of girls in this house though) So anyway, our bathroom is still in the same place and the same size but my father in law completely redid everything and it looks wonderful!!! I wish I had taken before and after pictures but as usual I thought of that after it was done. I feel like I can take a bath and relax, not look around and see all the things that need done to make it nice. I don't mind people having to use the bathroom now when they come over.
