O Christmas Tree…

Hi, Happy Friday, Merry Christmas in March!

Growing up, getting the Christmas tree was something that I both looked forward to, and dreaded. My mom would make us hike for hours (literally) in the cold and snow, until she found that perfect tree. By the time she found it, we usually had covered the entire tree farm two or three times. My youngest brother would be crying and throwing sticks, my middle brother would be sulking and trying to walk away from us, and I would be frozen and yelling at my parents. Nothing says “Merry Christmas” like three screaming kids, right?

Christmas in March logoHi, and Happy Friday!

To go along with our Christmas in March theme, I wanted to get you to brainstorm, and share your ideas!

A spa that I visit frequently (especially after show season!) always has such fun open houses. I’ll get an email about a month ahead of time, outlining the “schedule” for the evening and giving me a preview of any specials that will be running while I’m there enjoying myself.

March Fever!

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

I love to see March come around.

This means the weather is getting warmer and college basketball’s March Madness is just around the corner.

With the weather breaking, we now can start getting our fishing gear ready.  I enjoy going to the sporting goods stores to see all the new fishing gear.  It’s like a little kid in a candy store.

Once the lakes are thawed, we can get out and try the new lures.  Hopefully we can land some big bass like this small mouth I caught last summer.
