HAPPY WEEKEND, yall!
You always remind me to be thankful for blessings I take for granted. We like those little boxes of oranges too, Owen particularly likes to take a little orange pieces and squeeze it til juice squirts everywhere. He thinks this is funny. So Mama is pretty much the only one "eating" them. ha. Happy weekend!

Annesta, it was so good to hear from you! I reread my trip posts the other night, and it really does seem like we were just there. Time flies, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI am also VERY much looking forward to spring break. When is yours? Not that I'm counting or anything, but if I was, I'd know that there are only 10 schooldays left :)
Happy weekend, friend!
