beautiful day!

my tulip bulbs are above ground...see those little sprouts!  ready for bloom!

this beautiful civil war home is our front yard! 

I have decided that I am now ready for spring!  I have loved the unusual snows that we have gotten this year and have really enjoyed the few snow days that the kids have gotten to have....I am thinking that we really need "pretty days" at school, you know those beautiful days that would be perfect stay home days... they won't concentrate on those days at school anyway!  The kids loved running around outside in warmer weather this weekend! (which seemed so odd when they had just gotten out at the end of the week for ice and snow!)

another note... these colorful little teeth get the great reveal next month!  No more braces!  She has taken such good care and followed instructions so well that they come off 6 moths early...she is saving us quite a bit of money!  Cannot wait to see those new teeth!
