Yes! Spring IS here!

Wow, life has been so AMAZING! I am just loving the nicer weather. I can send the boys outside to play and mommy stays slightly sane! LOL We are just having an amazing Spring! We had friends over for Spring Break which was so much fun! My lifelong friend, Traci brought her husband and 6 kiddos over for a visit. We had a blast! I don't get visitors very often so I really enjoy them when they are here :)

Right now I am getting ready for my husband to be gone at a conference in Albany. And then when he gets back I am leaving for my week long birthday trip to the Coast....BY MYSELF! Yes! This is the second year that I have gotten to do this and let me tell you, it is much needed. I actually told Norman that I can really use it twice a year...but that's probably not going to happen! When you are a stay at home mommy and you homeschool your kids...you just need to get away for some "YOU" time. It's not that we don't love our little ones, it's just so easy to loose yourself when everything you do revolves around them. Probably doesn't make a lot of sense but it's true! So I'm super excited. First I get to go to a Conference in Lincoln City with my mom for the weekend, and then I get to spend the rest of the week catching up with friends that live in and around Newport. Yay! Happy Birthday to me!! Ok, obviously I'm a little excited and can't think of anything else, much less blog about anything else! I promise to update my blog with the goings ons while I was gone....after I get back!!!
