I don't mean Oh that's so coool! I mean it's down right cold. When is our spring going to come? I think we're going right from winter into summer. I think that last week Saturday was our spring. One day! It was so nice outside. Noah did yard work while the boys played and helped shovel dirt. Such good little helpers they are.
So I received my "wedding" outfit in the mail yesterday. I tried it on. Oh no! I looked like a big gold disco ball. Not a keeper. I'm sending it back. I ordered the black one instead, but not for the wedding. I loved the top so much, I can wear it to the class reunion in September. I'll be the most fabulous looking one there...yeah right.
So for those of you who haven't heard yet, I'm hosting the Memorial Day Weekend cookout. So on Saturday, Noah and I are going to be doing some landscaping projects. We will weed the flower beds, and then put that anti-weed plastic over the dirt and cover it with pretty gravel. We've been wanting to do it since last year, but never got around to it. There are a total of three flower beds around our house, so I'm hoping it won't take very long. It's supposed to be in the 70s on Saturday, so I won't mind being outside...it's the dirt I don't like.
Saturday I went shopping with Manny. As we were walking through Kohls, we went in the way back section where all the clearance odds and ends are located. We found the most awesome speakers for their mp3 players. They are called IFlops! and they are stuffed animals with headphones and the headphones are the speakers. Manny picked out the bear and fell in love with it right away. I checked the price on it...$34.99. My heart sank, my jaw dropped, and I said, "Oh Manny, we can't get these. They cost too much money." Then I looked at another one...a frog. It was priced $6.99. Oh heck, we can afford that! So we took a frog and a bear. They sleep with them and listen to the music. Oh what fun. Why didn't they have that kind of stuff when I was growing up?
In twelve weeks we'll be in Florida in the hot sun. Oh the joy. I'm so looking forward to it. I'm sick of this weather here. We drove by the lake last night and Gabe said, "Look at the pretty lake." I told him we were going to see bigger and warmer water than that when we go visit Kim Kim in Florida. Shouts rang out. Manny informed me, "I like waters."
Well, gotta get back to work. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Tootles.

I am glad to hear the boys are excited about seeing waters here at my house. Every morning they can wake up and look out over the waters with Kim, Kim, Kim in Florida!!!! Can't wait! I am so looking forward to your visit, you just can't imagine. I drive everyone nuts around here telling them about it. The memory of the cold winter (and spring) will be forever erased about one week in Florida in August!!!!
