What I'm Loving


This week started with a snow day, and ended with 60 degrees today! Only in MO :)

Because of the nice weather, I talked my husband into having dinner on the deck tonight. Which was lovely until the sun went behind the trees... and then it was freezing! So we went inside.


 
 
Second, I got an awesome little fitbit flex last week... totally loving it! This crazy gizmo is so smart, it even tracks your sleep
 
 

Third...my school has Thurs and Fri off this week for "Spring Break" (ha!), but I am looking forward to a three day week.

Fourth- I am so excited to start reading this book!

 
 
And last, this quote.
 
Especially true during this Lenten season.

Have an awesome week!
