Oh Lisa...

Remember this?  Great song, lame video...

Oh, April.

I have a love/hate relationship with Spring in Utah.
I love the crocuses, the buds on the trees, the birds coming back, sun kissed noses and cheeks, bare feet, and playing outside again.

But April... You do tease me so. One day is sunny and hot, the next is freezing and snowing.




Oh! And the MUD!



We are doing our best to make it through, but the going is slow, and the warm days pass so much quicker than the cold. We will savor the sun when it is here, and hide inside when it is not, until May arrives (or maybe June), when we can pack away the coats and gloves.
We will make it!

Our house, is a very very very fine house

After 16 months of working our fingers to the bone, we're selling...

We've decided to simplify and downsize, and not have a mortgage!  Any takers?

Sunshine on my shoulders

The sun is shining again!  We still have a foot of snow outside our front door, but the sun is shining!  It's really amazing the feelings that sunshine can evoke.  When you get a chance today, find some sunshine and soak it in.  It feels so good.

And then check out this amazing inspiration:

Baking Winter Away

Is that possible?  If it is, I will do it!  I can't help myself.  

When it's cold outside, I just want to bake!  

Looks like I'm passing this trait on to my little Ava.

Well, well, well. I guess word travels fast in the world of bloggers. I don't think I told any friends about our blog yet, but you all found me! I was feeling a little self conscience about my writing skills, since everyone else seems to be seasoned, so I was working up to telling everyone that I had jumped on the wagon... but the cats out of the bag now, so read up.

Winter is finally here. I'm feeling the need to knit and bake bread. I love this time of year. It's just a few short weeks that I actually like the snow, then the next 4 months I'm longing for Spring and cursing the cold!
