Fun at State BB

Congratulations on a great season, Coach Flom!

Let's zoom in on that fun shot!

Eden Prairie BB-State Tourney!

We're all excited here about David's team making it to the the State AAAA championship game! Catch them on CH 45 at 8pm and look for the guy pictured above! :) Nancy's husband of course. We are very proud of David and his team. Dan got to watch them beat Lakeville South while he was in Mpls on Wed. Last night we watched them beat Osseo on TV and are hoping that they will beat Hopkins for a second time for the State Championship on Saturday. Last year they earned 4th place and this is David's 5th year as head coach. Whatever happens, it's going to be a great night! I'll be snapping some photo's and will share some here.

Last couple of weeks

We had another snow day on Wed, yawn, which means my Easter vacation is now shortened to 3 days. I got revenge on winter anyway by putting away all my warm winter sweaters. I'll get by. The great blue herons are back so I know spring is just around the corner....
Vintage shopping-you never know what you will find and when I spotted this spotted purse at the Goodwill in Fergus I thought of Sarah and bought it just in case. As soon as she put it on her shoulder I knew I was right! I love this purse and it is much better on a 19 year old shoulder than mine. :) Sarah loves it too, so it has a great home. The spots are all flaps so it moves a little, very fun.
So.....onto stuff for me, I stopped at the BB tonight on the way home as it's been a whole week since I've been there and scored on this Talbots top for only 75 cents!!! Yes, you read that correctly, Charice. I think it will be great with white capris and shorts, jeans too. Also is a good school shirt which is always a bonus. I have been using loads of self tanner lotion and you cannot tell from this picture, that's for sure. I hate late winter white skin. I am tempted to get another body spray before Vegas but cannot deal with the orange palms, hands and feet. I won't lay in the "cancer chamber" either so the lotion is my best shot this spring.
And now, my favorite find of the day, my Mexican inspired handmade shirt for just $1. It's colors caught my eye and then the handmade stitching, not only in the front but a little in the back too. Zoom in, it's a blanket stitch! Think jean capris with cute sandals and a Corona with a lime. I wonder who made it? I hope they'd be happy knowing that it's very much admired and appreciated by its current owner. I'm off to apply more tanning lotion to my arms, but not my knuckles. Yikes!

So Much for March...

We had a blizzard on Friday night and awoke to this. There is supposed to be a sidewalk here.

The strange white shapes are the evergreens in my window box.

Notice that the snow covers the trunks on the north west side. It was pretty windy out there.

Snow covered light

I don't know if I've ever had so much snow in my window box!

It's getting a little depressing.

On a positive note, the oak buds are thick, spring will win.
