Today I wore my flip flops, opened some windows & enjoyed the warmer spring air :) The good news is, is it going to be even warmer this weekend - woohoo! They are calling for rain, but temps close to 70 degrees. I know that we usually get another patch of snow in March, but for the most part, spring is here, and I am happy. I've got spring fever - I am ready to go outside!
I sent the kids out to play for the first time in quite a while, and since Harry was home, I ran to return some movies and pick a few things up from the store. I get a frantic call from Harry that Ellie & her friend had gotten into some burrs out in our woods. The other little girl has hair down the middle of her back and she had hundreds matted in her hair. I told him I'd be right home a would take care of it. My first thought was conditioner, and when I came home he was searching the internet for ideas - and that is exactly what it said to do (for dogs, LOL). I coated her hair and used a comb to get them out, but it took a good half hour, I felt so bad for her. She was such a trooper though! The girls now know to stay out of the woods or at least watch for the burrs :)
The big kids had a Dr. Seuss dress up day today - it was such fun helping them make their costumes & get dressed up this morning. Here they are...
Thing 1

Aren't they cute? :)
LOVE the costumes! They're great. Poor girlies with the burrs. And I'm feeling the spring fever too. I just two new pairs of flip-flops!
