Spring break and Easter are just around the corner.

This is the first year that I have a child in school, so the break is something I get to look forward to.

A week of no schedules sounds too good to be true!

I made these flower cookies with some spring colors to remind me of the upcoming season.

Winter has been too long this year and I welcome any sign that warmer weather is almost here.
