Springtime

Spring is one of my favorite times of year, but it's also one of the busiest. Spring Break and Easter were early this year and it was still cool outside, so it didn't feel like it was really here. I spent a few days of Spring Break in Greenwood, MS visiting with Mom and the Tylers. Mom prepared and cooked some of the most amazing meals (as usual) and Tim and Cole took me to the "secret lake."

I made a quick trip to Jackson to see my sister, Claire and her hubby, Charles. That was the first time I had spent the night with them since they live so close to my parents house. Mama and Daddy were both out-of-town, but they came made the trip to Birmingham the next weekend for Easter. We went to church, then they came to my house for lunch. Missy joined us too since that is our annual holiday meal.



It didn't take long to get back into the routine of work, but it is still hard to get up in the mornings since it's light late in the day and dark early in the morning when I wake up. I do love those few extra hours of daylight.

This past weekend some of my family came to Birmingham for the first Tyler Cousin Camping Trip. We all love to be outdoors and camp, so we took a weekend trip up to Sipsey Wilderness. It was beautiful and such nice weather, even though it was a little overcast. The waterfalls are amazing! Thankfully, we didn't have to worry about bears getting us in the woods, but the ticks were quite active. I think I am more scared of ticks than a grizzly!
