Spring has sprung...

So it's already April. Spring is here. I love spring, really I do. I enjoy the cool but somewhat warm temps, I enjoy the flowers and the trees coming back to life. I also enjoy the smell of freshly cut grass, even when it makes me sneeze.

Today is beautiful. Not too cold, not too warm and lots of sunshine. After four days of clouds, cold and rain it is a welcome sight. It's days like today that I wish I was one of those athletic type girls that rides a mountain bike and climbs rock walls. I seriously wish I was in that kind of shape. I love being outside, not being hot, I love swimming but not with tons of people around to see my jiggles and neon white spots. But yes it would be nice to be able to enjoy the outdoors with my kids and not get tired.

My mission for this summer is to spend more time outdoors. I plan on taking my kids swimming at some point. I can't remember a summer when I was a kid that I did not go swimming. I would have considered it child abuse if my mother didn't take us swimming somewhere. So yeah, my kids need to be exposed to the water. Which means I will have to purchase a bathing suit. Which means I need to work on my jiggly bits too. Summer always makes me want to drink more water and eat fresh food so maybe that will all kick in and I'll be able to drop some pounds while having fun with the kiddos.

That is if I don't get sucked into the cokes, the ice cream and candy bars.
