Spring is Here!

Everything in my yard is finally beginning to bloom and come to life around us. I love watching all of my plants push their way up through the earth and get bigger and bigger every day. The tree in my front yard is in full bloom and is just gorgeous! See the huge window in the front of my house? Well I get to wake up and look out everyday and see that tree. It makes me smile alot! LOL

I wish it would stay in bloom for longer than a week or so. I hate to see them go and it becomes just a regular tree. I also have some tulips that are a beautiful shade of orange and red. Someone planted them before we moved in and every year they catch me by surprise!



Spring also means the start of the softball season for Brooke and dance competitions and recitals for Janette and Becca. Brooke has her first game at the end of this month and Janette is finishing up her competitions with one in Youngstown this weekend. We are very proud of her accomplishments and can't wait to see her and her sister perform in the recital for all of our family. Then we will be able to focus soley on Brooke's games! She has quite an arm on her and loves playing the outfield and third base. JJ is coaching her team so it gives them a chance to connect and have something in common for awhile.
Busy, Busy and Crazy Busy is a great way to desribe our lives until the middle of summer. And like any parent, I love watching the kids succeed at the things they love!!
