Happy Monday Morning

Happy Monday morning (you know how I love Mondays!)

This particular Monday is extremely awesome. Besides being Dancing with the Stars night , this Monday signifies the official beginning of "warm" weather season. Here in Florida we have a pretty much non-existent spring. We go from what we consider cold to hot in just a couple of weeks (sometimes days). Personally, I consider spring in Tallahassee the short time that the millions of azaleas bloom. Once the blooms start to fade, then it's "almost summer." Another sign? Love bugs. If you don't know what a love bug is, then consider yourself a happy car owner.

The other big sign that it's almost summer is the end of Lent. The Geraci clan celebrated Easter yesterday in the TB (Tampa Bay) area, starting with mass at St. Francis of Assisi in Seffner, followed by an unbelievably awesome buffet at Jackson's Bistro at Harbour Island, then rounded up our trip back to Tally with a stop in Gainesville to wish Only Son good luck with his finals this week.

So yay for Monday, yay for almost summer, and yay for what promises to be a terrific week (culminating with the big Senior Prom for Daughter #2. Did I tell you that I'm going to be hosting 9 high school couples for Prom dinner? More on that later...)

Meanwhile, check out this awesome Earth Day banner Daughter #2 and her pals made as part of their AP Environmental Science class project. I took a secret snapshot of it while it was drying in our garage. Pretty cool, no?

I wish I was as excited about today as you are! Monday in Kentucky is still wet and gray. We do have spring, which I love, but not the allergies that go with it. I can't wait until our vacay in Florida!!! Have a great time hosting your daughter's prom dinner. Wonderful memories!

I saw some lovebugs yesterday too. I hate them! Means I can't drive my convertible for a while.

Tonya, Sorry that the weather is yucky in Kentucky (okay, didn't mean to rhyme there!)

Hopefully your Florida vacation will be filled with lots of sunshine :)

Kristen, yesterday while eating outside there were lovebugs in our hair! Gratefully, none in our food. At least none that we noticed:)
