Shades of the Season: One last look at Winter

021

I am so ready for Spring, but I am going to miss these morning views.

I have mentioned before that I often take a side trip or two on my way to work to grab a photo or two.

Here are some of photos from a couple weeks ago. We had a beautiful clear morning where everything had a frosty dusting of snow & ice. It was just beautiful!

This is what I woke up to this morning…Freezing Ice!

I thought about crawling back into bed, but responsibility called and said I needed to be some where so I went to work.

What I’m loving Wednesday!

I am loving…that Spring is right around the corner…bring on the green grass, flowers, warmth & sunshine!

I am loving….that I get to spend a night in G.R. shopping with one of my closest friends this weekend! Can’t wait! It is much needed “girl time”.

I am loving…working through the Style Statement book.

I am loving…the end of the high school basketball season…with the hopes of a district title for the boy’s & girl’s teams.
