The Camera's Take

Wah?!? Two posts in one day?? I know, but this time, I let the photos speak.

Crazy or Prepared?

I started my vacation list today with 46 days and counting. All this really entailed was copying my list over from last year and making adjustments, but it makes the week seem that much closer. I wiped out the line that states "bottles" {{sh whew}} and many other items of the sort. This year, we'll be stocking up on sand toys instead. Way more fun.

If it's not written on the list, there's a super chance I'll forget it. BigCat says that people like me are the first to lose our minds... Writing a list takes the mental portion out of remembering. For now, I figure I'm making up for those mind strengthening exercises elsewhere, but I don't doubt his forecast. But no matter what, I'll always make lists. For everything. Without lists, I am crazy.

Long Lowdown

Where has the time gone? The good news is that the faster it goes now, the sooner vacation gets here. As you can see (since it's in blaring white!) I have added a countdown to my most coveted time of year. Lake Edward vacation. It's what gets me through so much of the rest of the year, and thankfully, as life gets busier and more stressful it seems the R&R of that week comes around again that much faster.

Oh, where to begin... With the little guy. He's cutting his eye teeth, but has been a complete champ. He's starting to talk quite a bit more, although still on his terms. He LOVES being outside and makes a loud fuss every.single.time.we.go.in. Whether we're leaving daycare or coming in from a bike ride, he's mad. Real mad. I like to refer to Bubba as 'strong-willed'.

BigCat is getting all geared-up for Mother's Day, uh, I mean, opening fishing this weekend. It looks like the weather will be nice, and better yet, dry. I consider the latter to be quite important although some may say that's when the fish bite.

School continues to go very well (not gonna brag, but I got an 'A' in my first class). Of course there are days when I'm stressed, but overall I am enjoying the challenge and the learning. So, I figure I must make some time to kickback and relax!Like a Twins game filled with Dome dogs and jumbo pretzels (last Saturday), a wedding and the play Legally Blonde (this coming weekend). Thankfully, both my hubby and family help to make these outings possible. Thank you!! :-)

In our down-time (ha ha), we're just watching our sod turn green, looking forward to having a real yard for the first time in 4 years! It's a very exciting time.
