Our kooky "Spring" weather..........;)

This was our street on Wednesday morn...we had the biggest mess of very wet, very heavy snow fall on Tuesday night, Wednesday morning. Of course, no school on Wednesday, it was a mess! Then our power went out around 8:30 a.m. It's not quite so much fun having a snow day without power, ya know? We ended up going down to my dh's office to keep warm. On Thursday it had snowed some more....still no power. Our house was frigid at this point, about 50 degrees. We got up and went to dh's office (again) to shower and spend the day. Got home to a very cold house...still no power. Built a huge fire in the fireplace and at about 8 p.m. our power came back on, thank goodness!

This is what's left of the snow in our backyard, at least on one side of the yard.....

Here's the other side of the yard that gets more sun.  And our temps today? 57 degrees! Crazy I tell ya! But we're loving this sun and it's Spring Break and I couldn't be happier!

I splurged on these two beauties today and can't wait to dig into them....they both look really good.
Tomorrow is our huge "World's Biggest Indoor Garage Sale" at the fairgrounds, that's where you'll find me and my dd....shopping our hearts out. Wish us luck! Hope you all are staying warm and that the sun is shining wherever you are.....;).

That is crazy weather you had! It's funny because my sister called me from Chicago the other day and said, it's warm here this winter, you can move back now!!!! Isn't she funny?

I cannot wait to see what you find at your huge garage sale!
