Friday it was 62 degrees here, by some accounts it was even closer to 70. It was glorious. After naptime the kids and I walked, all of us, without a stroller or carrying Mette, to the hardware store and Rachel’s house to make and deliver keys. We were literally skipping down the sidewalks frolicking in the warm sunshine. Upon returning home the kids played outside while I worked on making dinner in the kitchen with the door open letting in the warm breezes and the squeals of delight as the children squirted each other with water bottles. It was glorious. Visions of afternoons playing outside and windows open filled my head. I swept the deck and thought about the garden we will be starting soon.
This is the view out of the kitchen window this morning:
Spring may be a little further off.
It is after all still February, but it stings a bit more on the heels of Friday.
I decided to embrace the coming season change by making new curtains for the kitchen.
They are so bright and cheery. It helps deal with the snow. Which is quite beautiful. I’ll admit, reluctantly.
Today we are making homemade granola bars and eating marshmallows. Really, how can you not?

I LOVE the new curtains!
wow, that is a lot of snow! there's none in our ten day forecast, so hopefully whenever the trip to the hospital happens it won't be impeded by the white stuff. great curtains are those sheep? : )
we are supposed to get another 1-3" tonight!The curtains are couches with birds posted on the edges. It is called Avian Therapy which may be my favorite part!
