Spring

i feel like i can actually say it: spring.
i'm loving it.
the girls are loving it.
and, no, they're not this intense about it.
it's exciting enough to blow raspberries about.
and, spring makes me remember the days when the most beautiful flowers
in the world grew in our backyard...
and, before you start mocking my matchie-matchie taste, may i submit that those precious shirts for $1 at target last fall were worth the trip down memory lane into 1985.
i'm sure some of you remember wearing those exact colors in stripes?
you know, that age when the biggest concern of your life was wind in your hair or dirt in between your toes... or that mommy wouldn't let you eat the grass... the tough things in life.
but most of the time, spring just meant sunshine, some rain, green grass & happiness. 
happy springtime!

How cute! And good for you going matchy-matchy ... I still find ways to make my girls match - it's just too cute.

Aww- I love these pics! What sweethearts your girls are! Maybe SOMEDAY we'll get our little ones together again :) I am jealous of your Spring weather. It's so hit or miss around here! But I think next Tuesday when you get here it will be sunny and a whopping 59 degrees :0)---just for YOU!

Sue, it was a pleasure seeing these pictures and reading your thoughts. Great job. Now I REALLY want to hug those girls!

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who succumbs to making the girls match... Julie, thanks for ordering tolerable weather. Dad, they're waiting for you!

I don't think there's anything better than little ones + warm weather. our weather keeps teasing us, mean ole' mr. nasty. :) summer has to come SOME day, right?!
