And we're back with the weather...

We had a beautiful weekend – FINALLY! After the snow last week I have been more than ready for spring to begin! This weekend the temperatures were perfect for getting outside and doing lawn and garden clean up. We were outside the entire day yesterday. It was wonderful. Well until that pesky ice cream truck started stalking the neighborhood with its pied piper music and colorful ice cream graphics causing me to hide the children and stuff cotton in their ears. Seriously, that thing reminds me of the kid catcher on Chitty Chitty Bang-Bang - I had nightmares!

So ANYWAY, with the warmer weather it was time to pull out some of the new clothes I recently purchased. I love new clothes. No worrying about stains or holes or loose hems. They are perfect right off the hanger. Today I am wearing a red shirt. And it is RED! No fading yet. I feel like a walking stop sign. Hey wait, maybe I’ll just plant myself at the corner of my daycare house and hope that if the sign doesn’t stop traffic I will. It’d be great. I could actually say that I stopped traffic :-) I mean really, I could pretend that Cindy Crawford story I tell myself is true, add that Rob Lowe/Mario Lopez thing and mix it up with the stopping traffic fairy tale. Shoot, I’m a movie star :-) Okay maybe not a movie star but I do have this blog – oh and I scrapbook so it’s close – really…

And don't you just love the smell of new clothes?! New clothes are almost as good as new scrap supplies!

I thought the ice cream truck was just in the movies. I have never seen one but I will take your word for it. ;)
