March

March already?!?!?  Time goes by so fast but I must say that I am ready for some Spring weather.  It has been a cold winter and I am ready for some sunshine!  We have had some nice spring-like days already giving us just a taste of what is soon to come.  This past Sunday was beautiful so the family and I loaded up and headed to 'the farm'.  Both boys were so excited that Mom was going along this time.  They couldn't wait for me to see all that they enjoy so much of...  the 4-wheelers, golf carts, fishing ponds, creeks, etc.  It was a great day and so nice to be out in the woods enjoying God's beautiful creation.

We are getting started with baseball with at least a couple practices each week.  Samuel has a great coach again and we are looking forward to a wonderful baseball season at Kentuck.  The boys have a campout planned for this weekend at 'the farm' with several fathers and sons participating.  Samuel loves this time!  We also just found out that some friends from Kentucky are coming down for a few days so we are all looking forward to that. 

John Michael is growing by leaps and bounds!  His current absolute obsession is horses.  He has been crazy about horses for quite some time, but now... he's obsessed!  He plays and plays with his horses, tractors, barns, trucks & wagons, etc... for hours.  His favorite movie is Black Beauty and The Black Stallion Series that we check out at the library EVERY week.  If he has a bad day at school, all I have to say is no Horse Movie and the problem is taken care of.  I keep telling Joseph that we will be buying a horse one of these days!

I just started reading Firefly Lane and so far, I can't put it down.  It's really good.... I just wish I had more time to read.  Samuel is reading Tom Sawyer and we are looking forward to the upcoming Tuscaloosa Childrens Theatre production.  John Michael is reading anything and everything to do with horses.  Seriously!  Every night, Black Beauty or another farm related book that has horses in it.  Even educational books about horses.  As long as there are horses, he's great!

Looking forward to Spring break next week!
