Outside my window... It is sunny with blue skies and those lovely little puffy white clouds that move very fast - it's been very windy since last night. I have several windows open as it is warm out, but the wind is very noisy through the house! All the snow has now gone and the ground is dry except for Sams favourite puddle which always remains for a long time thankfully - he loves it so much.
I am thinking...how lovely it is listening to the girls giggling in the other room - they are playing Guess Who. They are laughing away at something! We've had a lovely day out and now they are playing a game in front of the tv and laughing so much. Laurence and Sam are outside playing soccer and on the trampoline and with the dogs. It's been a good week.
I am thankful for... an early Spring. An Easter with no snow - being able to hide the easter eggs in the woods again (it's been a few years since we've been able to do that - it's always too snowy or too wet!!) The ski hills are closing and the golf courses are opening!!
From the kitchen... the chicks are quickly outgrowing their 'nursery' in the corner of the kitchen, but are just oh so sweet! Their chirps are just the cutest noise and the chicks that we thought were going to be white are no longer white - their white wings have changed to brown over night!!!

I am wearing..shorts and a t shirt.
I am creating...numerous swaps for swapbot, haikus, various yarn projects, various art projects, various little bits and pieces going on in my craft room - I've been playing about with my fragments - altering them ready to add them to things...
I am going..to breakfast with Val this morning and then out for a walk with the children this afternoon and I think Stacey is joining us!!
I am reading... this months FAB Cosmo magazine - if you haven't read it then GET IT!! ;)
I am hoping...for good weather this weekend and a nice relaxing, fun family weekend :)
I am hearing...Global breakfast news and nothing else - everyone else is asleep (or not here - Laurence slept at a friends last night and Lloyd is at work)

Around the house...Not a lot was done this last week as we were away for the weekend and this week is Spring Break - the girls have been doing a lot of baking but we haven't done much else around the house...playing, crafting, relaxing.....those have been more important!
One of my favorite things...Attic 24 - the colours and language are sheer joy to the senses.
A few plans for the rest of the week...walks, seeing friends, geocaching with family and friends, hair appointments, date night, dinner with friends, the zoo, April Fools jokes, Easter egg painting, Easter egg hiding, family movie watching.......these are a few of our plans over the coming days...

A picture I'm sharing with you: a stormy sky from a few days ago...there was a thunder storm brewing in the distance and we heard one clap of thunder - it ended up missing us completely, but the clouds were stunning to see!!
