the buzz and excitement of the holidays are behind us, yet spring is still way too far ahead of us. This is definitely what I consider the dead of winter. Bleh. It is freezing out today--I think I heard that the wind chill is making it feel like -3 degrees. Good times. I guess I should just be counting my blessings that there is no snow.
I need to plan some things to look forward to for the next few weeks. After weeks and weeks of plans and obligations, we have just about nothing for as far as I can see. We will be hosting a small celebration for Eden's birthday in two weeks, but other than that...not much to look forward to.
I really want to take Sadie snow tubing in PA. She's dying for the chance to play in the snow, and it looks like it would actually be a lot of fun. I guess I just need to figure out a weekend to do that.
I think once we get our vacation plans finalized (and booked!), then I'll really feel like the DR trip is happening, and can start looking forward to that. One thing I do need to look into, though, is travel insurance. I've never bought any before, but with two kids...it seems like a good idea. We'd definitely still go if one of them came down with a run of the mill sickness, but if for any reason, we couldn't go, it would sting a whole lot more to be out the $$ for the entire trip anyway.
I'm also planning a night in the city for the two of us. Our friends Jeff and Anonda invited us up to help them spend a gift certificate to a nice restaurant up there, so now that the girls are a-ok with sleeping over at their grandparents' houses again, I'm all for taking advantage of it!
So, I guess there are some things on the horizon...just hard to realize it when all I really want to do is hibernate until this weather goes away.
