Happy 1st day of Spring

Happy Monday and happy 1st day of spring! Now where are those warm temps? I am waiting for the 70's! That's my kind of weather. We had a great weekend starting off with St. Patrick's Day Friday. Nick and I were both off so we wanted to partake in some green beer! We met friends down in Covington at Molly Malone's. We waited in line for 30 minutes and it was packed. We lasted less than an hour and headed across the street to Smoke Justice. What a cool place. If you have not been....go!! It would be a great place go to watch some games. The food was good too!!

We watched the Cats play a late game against NKU Friday so we were a little slow moving Saturday. But I promised Mere I would take her shopping for Soccer gear. Also apparently everyone else made the same promise because the store was packed. Luckily Mere found what she wanted right away . Cleats, socks, shin guards, and mouth guard later we were on our way for some ice cream as a reward. The rest of the day was spent lazing around watching games until church. After church we decided to TRY to make my grandma's blackberry cake. Mere and I spent the day in Augusta this past summer learning how to make it from her before she got sick and passed. I am so glad we took the time and spent with her. You can see that post here. I had to text my aunt Christy several times with questions that I had forgotten from that day. The kids helped a little here and there while Nick and I did the majority of making it Saturday. We need a little more practice on the icing. But I would give us an A for effort. It just means we will have to make it again.

It needed to be documented that I fixed my hair for church instead of throwing it up! I have gotten so lazy lately with it.

 I also had a little pep in my step this morning and it wasn't because it's the first day of spring! It's not because I woke up an hour earlier and busted out a workout before work. Nope! I woke up to the news the Dukies (also known as Duke puke) went down!! I love me some March Madness and yesterday was the perfect day for it!! When Louisville and Duke both go down and Kentucky win I am in heaven!! It was a tough game for my Wildcats yesterday but some how they pulled off the W. Wichita State gave them a run for their money. I felt like I had ran a marathon after watching it. At one point with 8 minutes left, I looked at Nick and said I need to go for a walk or something. My nerves were off the charts!! lol. Now on to UCLA Friday!! I can't hardly wait!!

Not sure how it happened but "the triplets" turned 18 yesterday! Cue the tears. I have watched these boys grow from little preemies into young men. I have loved every second of it.

Happy 18th boys!!

Nick, Will, & Brady

Have a great week ya'll!!
