We got a taste of summer.

Well the kids are on spring break and I am loving them home. I am also thrilled that the weather has been amazing so far for them. We have totally received a glimpse of summer this week. The temps have been in the 90's for the past couple of days and I am loving it. We have totally been enjoying being outside after being trapped inside all winter. Although the winds have now kicked up and I think we are in for a doozy of a rain storm here in a little bit.

We have been so busy with the boys baseball and trying to see friends that I have been literally straight out. We also watched Rachael's kids last Friday to Saturday that was a lot of fun. They are such great kids that I enjoy having them so much. On Sunday we were blessed to go once again to the Shrine Circus compliments of my Uncle and Dad. The kids look forward to this every year and if it wasn't for such great friends this year we almost weren't able to attend. We had to have someone watch Jake and Jen graciously offered to watch him for us. He was a challenge and I hope she knows how appreciated it really was. She Rocks!!!!

Onto my green thumb moment. I have always wanted to plant tulips. Scott and Rachael's dad had some of the most amazing I have seen at their house in Manchester years back. I have never forgotten how beautiful they were and when I spotted bulbs at Christmas Tree Shop last fall I scooped up a bunch all colors and different kinds. Jeff and I got busy planting them in November and I am so thrilled that they came up and have started to bloom today. They are stunning and I am so proud. Here are a few that bloomed today.
Okay well off to eat dinner. Talk to you all later.
