lots
lots of empty boxes. lots of full boxes.
lots of barren shelves. lots of clothing packed away.
lots of clutter everywhere. lots of stuff yet to be packed.
lots of open floor space.
lots accomplished. lots yet to be accomplished.

FINALLY
Do I dare to say that Spring has finally sprung? At least it appears that way in our neck of the woods!!
This weekend’s forecast: bright sunshine, 70degrees, 0% percent chance of rain, and kid-free for Daddy Buck and I!!
That’s right! This morning we embark on our {first ever} ‘sans kids’ weekend, thanks to my parents!
Have a great weekend!

**Lesson Learned: Don’t state your words in the form of a question, when what you truly meant to say was a statement!**
You know, the old addidge: I’m not asking you….I’m telling you!!

outtakes
“Hey boys….look at the camera so Mommy can take one picture of you two!”
“YooHoo boys….over here! Look at Mommy please!!”
“Boys, it’s such a pretty day outside and Mommy would like one picture of you two together please!!!”
“Buck-a-roo! Frank-o! Look here NOW!!!!”
“I. Mean. It. Look here and smile NOW!!!!!”
As I look back through the pictures, I can’t help but ponder the thought that any decent mother photographer wouldn’t ask their children to look at the camera with the sunlight glaring directly in their eyes! {That’s beside the point, right?!}

up close and personal
This fella had a fantastic {5th} birthday party last Sunday on what turned out to be the first day nice weather (68degrees and not a cloud in the sky, if you must know) that we’ve had in quite some time.
The highlight of the party was the animal exhibits that allowed the children to pet a boa constrictor snake, a baby alligator, a hedgehog, and a chinchilla and to view, up close and personal, a tarantula!
Following the party, we spent the remainder of the afternoon wandering through the zoo where we were treated to a, {once again} up close and personal, look at the elephants courtesy of the elephants themselves.
He/We had a fabulous day…..finally, a day in the SUN!
