Again.  Two times in one week!  Hard to believe.  And this time there was a lot more of it.  But it still only lasted about 24 hours.  The boys spent HOURS out in it, all afternoon and evening on Thursday.  And first thing on Fri morning, our neighbor and Jacob’s good friend, Daylen, was calling at 8 to see if he could come work more on the “snow cave” that he and Jacob were building.  There was a 2-hour delay for school on Friday, so they played up until 9:30 a.m. before putting dry clothes on and riding their bikes to school.  Fun times.

On Saturday we headed to a nursery that we like in Prosper.  We are expanding our flower beds in the front just a little and planting a little gem magnolia.  And we also got a peach tree for the backyard…and are looking for a plum tree.  We had a peach tree in one of our houses growing up, and I’m anxious and excited to try this out.  We’ll see how it goes.
Then we headed to old downtown Celina to a place called Lucy’s Grill.  It came recommended and we fell in love with the place.  It’s a hole-in-the-wall, but has the best food.  They brought us a plate of fresh, steamed green beans for Samuel that tasted like they had been grown out back.  And I had a grilled cheese with tomato and bacon that was HEAV-EN.  And Caleb had catfish (but kept calling it “salmon”).  So yummy…pies, burgers, etc.  Try it, if you’re in the area.
And then right on the same strip of Main St. was an antique shop.  The boys all indulged my need to go look…and we had the best time in there.  Owned by a cute old couple…I have about 6 things on a list of “have to haves” from there including a tin Annie lunchbox, that I swear I had in 1st grade.  I was crazy about Annie!
So it was a fun weekend…now, back to the grind!
