Enter Spring

I am so excited that Spring has arrived.  I am so ready to be out side working in the yard once again.  My mind is so full of ideas that I know will not come to pass because I will either forget or something else will come along.  but that’s just the way I am.  So full of intentions, hopes, dreams.  But so little time to act on them.   Now I am not saying I am a slacker and never accomplish anything.  I think my life is pretty well balanced for the most part.  I have many flaws just like the next guy. I just hope that at the end of the day I did my part to bring happiness to at least one life. Helped to put a smile on one face.  Just make a difference.  I’m 35 years old now but one thing that has never changed in my life is that I want to make a difference.

Seems Like Yesterday.

Picture 256

Wow, It seems like only yesterday that we moved into our house we live in now.  We have been here 7 years now and so much has changed.  The picture above was taken shortly after we moved in.  We had 5 blowers working the yard that year.  Sheila’s Dad pushed the issue for us to get a riding lawn mower with a bagger on it.  It has made our life so much easier.  What took 5 people to do now takes 1 person to do.  Sheila and I will take turns riding the mower while the other person handles the task of removing the bags to empty.  So I guess it is a 2 person job, if you want to make the task go faster.  I look back now and wonder how we were so blessed to have a family that cared so much about us to jump in and lend a hand.  They sure did not have to and we did not ask for the help.  But the help was so much appreciated.  I know that a lot of families would not have helped the kido’s out as much as our’s has. That just gives us so much more to be thankful for.   The life lessons that it taught us will not go by the wayside.  When we are blessed to have children of our own I will step up to the plate and make sure they have every chance to have long lasting memories just like the photo above.

Nice Weather

I’m so thankful for the nice weather that we have had for the past few days.  I’ve felt kind of crummy with sinus junk going on, but regardless it has been so beautiful.  

I was going through some of our pictures and found this one of me and Sheila from about 5 years ago.
