Our neighbor's trees this partly cloudy, gorgeous morning...every year it amazes me that they go from barely budding to filled with spring green little leaves in just a couple of weeks.
So I am feeling so much better all the way around...the midterm is done...the scholarship application & essay got turned in on Thursday...my mom and I have gifts for my sister's birthday party tomorrow...together we got her this since she doesn't have a cordless phone (and she NEEDS one with a newly walking one-year-old and a another baby due in a couple of months). When I asked her about it she said she'd want the PB one so it would match her other phones...she is all about things matching...as opposed to my randomly filled house. I also got her this (and got myself one) and my mom got her this which I actually modeled when we were struggling on the decision of what size to get and it is the cutest shirt ever.
Mac and I went to Coach Griffin's basketball game yesterday afternoon...
I'm sure Coach Griffin really appreciated my advice at half-time when the score was 28-2 and I told him he'd better get the second string girls off the bench to play so he wouldn't be one of those jack-ass coaches that continues to run up the score just because he can...he was planning on it because he's a good guy...all about sportsmanship and love of the game (and has been that second-string player plenty of times himself)...the final score was 50-26.
Then we hosted the sorority sleepover last night and I didn't take any picture since I was too busy talking...and stuffing my face with this and these. They all decorated frames...because you can't be at my house and not do something crafty...I packed up the box of supplies this morning...
Is it sad that all these years later the whole green and purple combination still makes me so happy...all that green and purple ribbon, fabric, and patterned paper is just so cute all together.
Today I need to wrap those couple of gifts and maybe do some reading for class...and just revel in the fact that I'm not coughing and am pretty much stress free...life is all better. :)
