rain, rain, go away....

mother nature and i, we are in a fight. a big one. shes like a sister, constantly teasing. she'll be good to me for a period and then- BAM-out of no where, shes evil. so last week we were blessed with 60 and 70 degree weather, i even got sun burned (!) (i mean, the last time i actually got sun burned by the REAL sun was in high school) and today i wake up to big fluffy snow flurries. what the heck. and according to the weather, its going to be back in the high 70's by the end of the week! what is this craziness?? and of course, due to my sun burn, i got a nice sun blister, aka cold sore. agh. but a nice tan. okay.... i cant really complain, its been unseasonably warm for 'wisconsin april', and i am LOVING every minute of it. i probably put in over 100 miles on my bike this weekend. jaelynn had spring break last week and spent the second half of it in kentucky with my parents visiting my sister and my niece and nephews, who are her age. so she was ecstatic that she got to 'go' somewhere for spring break... so kell, emersyn and i spent every waking moment outside biking and at the park. it was a great weekend, we missed jae, but she had a great time in kentucky, so i am glad for that.

today marks the 8 months until the big 'i do'!!!! its coming up sooo fast! so glad (in hindsight) that i never posted a pic of my wedding dress on here b/c i know kell checks out the blog every now and again. hi baby... :) slowly, but surely things are coming along....paying for things here and there, as we can afford to--its difficult to do since im not working still, but doing the best we can. we started our premarital counseling this past week, the class is different than i expected, as i thought it would be one-on one with a counselor, but for the first 5 weeks, we meet with a large group (10 other couples) and then we do the whole one on one. so, it will be interesting-but a learning experience at best.

i start coaching my soccer team this week. i am excited, this is something i love doing....last year i coached an all girls team, but this year i am doing co-ed. im kinda bummed b/c so far i only have 4 kids. and one of them is jaelynn. they are expecting to add more, but the numbers are down b/c of the economy, since it costs money to play.....emersyn is playing for the first time this year. i am soooo excited to see her play!!! she is growing up so fast! its crazy. yesterday she pulled out her picture albums from when she was first born and was looking at them with me, and watching her and listening her 'explain' each picture to me just blows my mind. its so heartwarming.

accidently fell asleep with emersyn at naptime today and woke up with a migraine. :/ hasnt gone away since then...wierd and somewhat unsettling, so im off to bed.
