Leap into Spring!

I am running full force into Spring this year.  I am absolutely done with Winter.  It's not that we had all that much snow, or even that it was overly long or cold.  In fact, Winter did not really start until well into January and it's only now the end of March.  Pretty short for a Michigan Winter honestly. 

I guess I feel this way every Spring.  There is something about the way the air smells.  About the beauty of the freshly sprouting tree buds.  The way the delicate shoots of tulips and daffodils poking out of the ground.  It's fresh, it's alive, it's new.  It's rebirth and a reminder of life and it's constant circle.  I just want to be outside taking it all in.

Tomorrow is Easter.  Early this year.  Today we spent the morning downtown collecting Easter Eggs from the local stores and visiting the Easter Bunny.  Ethan really loved the eggs.  We spend the afternoon having pretend egg hunts around the house.  I am so excited for the Easter Bunny to come tonight. 

Happy Easter to all of our loved ones!
