It's Friday....

Already?? This really was a quick week.  February is such a quick month too and I don't think it's because it is 2-3 days shorter than the others.  It is the month of transition.  Sometimes we get almost summer weather, still lots of winter days, a few Spring time days.  For me it is a month of hope.  You see the finish line.  You are not there yet, but you know it is close..... oh and it is my birthday month.  I say that a lot and pretty much every chance I get, because I am crazy in love with my own birthday. 
 
This is what is going on around here...
 


Past...A snow/ice storm, warm temps, thunderstorms, and tornado warnings.  To say Mother Nature is hormonal is an understatement.  Not complaining though.  I will take a good old thunderstorm any day of the week over an ice storm.  As long as no one is in danger that is.  We finished up volleyball for Madi, Dance ends this evening for Kate, we celebrated family birthdays for the month last Sunday, a good week :)
 
 
Present....a working lunch today at a good restaurant (I really am not ruled by food but boy do I love it), Basketball//Dance game tonight, oh and the sun is shining and the expected high is 59 degrees.  Can I get a woot woot?  If not, I am wooting enough for all :)
 
 
Future.... Planning meeting for church retreat (this is code for potluck), girls are going ice skating Sunday, only one forecast of snow next week, oh and next Friday is my Birthday....just sayin.
 
 
Have a great Friday friends and family!!

What's going on around here....

  I am joining up with The Simple Woman's Blog to bring you my weekly day book.  Link up and share yours and read the other links....          For today...February 2nd (Groundhog's Day) 6 more weeks of Winter was the prediction.   Outside my window....Snow.  We got enough to cover everything, but not the storm that was predicted.  I can handle this.  I will admit, snow is beautiful the first day before it gets slushy and dirty.       I am thinking...how nice to have the day off.  Sometimes using a vacation day to hang out around the house is worth it.   I am thankful and in gratitude for... an older daughter who is responsible and can run the house and the family well when left in charge for a few days.   I am wearing...my pajama pants and an Oklahoma Sooners hoodie, this may be what I stay in all day long :)   I am wondering....if raising teenagers will tur...

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
