Spring has Sprung!

It has been in the 70's for the past two days! A little sunshine does wonders for the soul! And my flowers are starting to bloom!!!
Yesterday I still had the sniffles, so i didn't get to enjoy the beautiful weather. So, tonight when we got home from work Jonathan fired up the grill. The grill is one of our favorite things about warm weather! J grilled some steaks (that were very yummy) and i fixed some sides and we hurried through eating so we could get outside for a walk! We had Bible study tonight so we had limited time before we had to leave. But we had to take Dakota to play in the sunshine! AND I wore flip-flops! yay!
"Take me for a walk, mommy and daddy! I've been a good boy!"
This is Coda after a long walk. I think he stopped by every single tree in the neighborhood. He doesn't just walk...he sprints in a zig-zag in front of us. He had so much fun on his walk! He'll sleep well tonight! Look at that cute little tongue. Doesn't he look happy?The weatherman told us that today is the last day for this wonderful weather. Back to rain tomorrow:( We studied Philippians 4:4-9 tonight at Bible study. It talks about not being anxious about anything and to rejoice in the Lord in every circumstance. That is a constant reminder that I need to tell myself daily. Rejoice in the Lord in the rainy days or in the sunny days. Rejoice in the Lord in the days that we hear nothing on the job-front. Rejoice in the Lord when I have the sniffles and when my hubby brings me flowers! God has been good to us.

Dakota is so cute. I took my sister's dog for a walk today and he did the exact same thing... every mailbox we passed he had to go pee at... ah, a dog's life!

Your spring flowers are GORGEOUS! I'm already loving being down here in the South... I think Doug will have to drag me into the car in a week & 1/2 ;-) Enjoy... even the rain!
