February?

Really? Where did January go? I suddenly realized yesterday that, since it was my birthday, it was also February! And that was not something I was quite ready for! Life is just getting back to normal from the holidays, and we are gearing up for visitors in the spring. First up is our "last" visit from Grandma & Grandpa - they have a new house in Golden, CO so they won't be spending as much time in their camper in our neck of the woods! We are planning a fun weekend camping with them over Valentine's Day. The boys are thrilled! Next up is a visit from Nana & Grandaddy, along with the FBR Open (our local PGA golf tournament that we can walk to!). Just a few days after they leave, our dear, sweet babysitter from TN is coming to visit over her spring break - how much does that rock?! And just a couple of weeks after that, a wonderful friend from our college days is coming for a quick weekend visit to do some fundraising for her heart's work with Beads of Courage. We will follow that up with Drew's spring break (details haven't yet been worked out but something fun hopefully will be happening!) which takes us into April! On April 18 we head back to Disneyland for what will probably be our last visit to that magical place while we live out west. Nana & Grandaddy will make that trip with us and Drew is already talking about everything he needs to "show" them at Disney. Then suddenly, it will be May; our TEN year anniversary (can you believe it?!), the end of another school year and the start of another hot summer in AZ.

In the midst of all of those plans, I have challenged myself to work on some areas of our lives and get some things back in shape.
* Budget
* Grocery
* Meal Planning & Execution
* Home Organization
* Personal Fitness

I'll let you know how everything goes!
