Spring... is that you?!

Sunday... what a beautiful day!  Started the day by losing an hour, but not to worry - I made sure to maximize my time awake.  Up at 7:00 for church (let Ryan sleep in after tearing off the roof and re-roofing in 2 days).  After church, our new member class - Ryan joined me for that.  Then off to Walmart and tanning... yes I went tanning. I know I'm not supposed to but I don't want to be a ghost for the wedding.  Then home to do some work outside because the thermometer says 65!!!  Yes... that's a 6 and a 5... and to top it off - it was sunny!  So I rake branches.  We had one tree that first lost all it's leaves and then decided to shed branches... not just a couple... a lot!  Here's the pile.



Then I decided I'd be nice and pick up Joey's presents that he leaves up.  Ryan usually does it, but he worked so hard on the lake house roof that I figured it was the least I could do.  And main there was a lot!  But all cleaned. 

Next, I tackled the leaves.  We still have like 8 trees that haven't lost any of there leaves.  I'm pretty sure they are waiting until like a week before wedding to let them fall, but oh well.  Lots of leaves had collected around Joey's kennel so I raked then all up. 

Lastly, moved to the house and decided to wash a few windows.  I stopped after 6 because I realized I should probably be washing the window sills and all at the same time.  Didn't want to be counterproductive.

Ryan came home and had invited a few friends over... Mike and Jullee and their sweet daughter Ava.  So we walked the lane with them and then played catch with Ava and talked outside for a bit.  Had to take in as much of that sun and warmth as we could.

Spring... I hope you are here to stay!!
