The end is in sight.....

I feel like singing, "I can see clearly now the snow is gone, I can see all snowflakes leaving my yard, the snow is behind me now and I'm so glad, its gonna be a bright, bright, bright bright snow free day!!"

Well I hope so. The past few days have been so nice...so sunny, so pretty but yet the snow is still here and it is still cold. But I will take 35 anyday compared to 25 or 15 or -30.

The days are longer. In fact Jimmy, Dash and I went walking on our 2 mile trail yesterday after work and it was still light outside when we got back to the house. I was silently singing the Hallelujah chorus as we walked.

I know we will still get snow and I know it will still be cold BUT the end of winter is in sight. I can just smell burgers on the grill, green freshly mowed grass and feel the ice cold salt rimmed margarita in my hand. Forget spring.....bring on summer!

Hi there!

I am falling down on my blog again. The beginning of each new year marks the start of my busy season at work. Things have been crazy here. My boss retired, we hired a new one, I started a new project at work and I am attending classes to get my leadership certificate....things have been crazy.

In the midst of all of this Jimmy turned 30, and we celebrated our 4 year anniversary.

Jimmy had a huge surprise birthday party. His dad, sister, brother and sister-in-law all flew in from NC. We met at the Dells' biggest indoor waterpark, The Wilderness. It was a blast. We rode rides, we partied, we ate, we went to a casino, we lived it up! It was a great surprise and Jimmy was happy!

We celebrated our 4 year anniversary yesterday. My how time flies! Jimmy bought me a beautiful necklace and some earrings.
