Toboggans, Hoodies & Gloves

What....hold it......look again....wait for it......is that what I'm seeing......


yep, it's mid-April and Andrew and Sara are playing outside in toboggans and gloves. The wind is extra chilly and record breaking temperatures are supposed to be hitting good ole Arkansas tonight. That didn't stop us from riding around in the Cub Cadet with our teeth chattering, eyes watering and heads covered with our hoodies and having a heck of a time. The deer stand in the pasture was the perfect place to sit, ya know, since it was such a blustery day.



Sara and I finally got smart and put on our sunglasses so our eyes would stop watering. We had good time goofing off and after we were almost popcicles we came inside and ate chili, steaks and macaroni & cheese. Good combination, huh? Well, since mom was in such a good mood.....I knew Dusty was grilling t-bones that I had been marinating and it's not the kids favorite so Andrew asked for homemade chili and I cooked that for him and Sara wanted mac & cheese.

Now we are off to bed. Andrew has SAT 10 testing today. And Sara has it tomorrow. So we are doing what we are supposed to.....bed early, good breakfast and cheery attitudes. Isnt' that how it always is?

You can always count on good ole Arkansas to throw you a few 'curve balls' this time of year!

Too cold for me. We did have a cold front, too. Yesterday, it was only about 60 degrees. It is funny how that can seem cold now after having 80s and 90s.
