yay! another monday!

the sun is doing it's job wonderfully today, don't you agree?

it's helping to lessen the blow of the ridiculously cold air...

this cold makes me giddy with thoughts of spring break.
no...i'm not venturing off to some tropical paradise where the temperature will permit a sundress and bare feet....but there's the promise of warmer temperatures...

i'm heading home for spring break, and i'm so ready to spend a week with my family.

other than indianapolis and a possible trip to chicago i won't be travelling very far from home, so i will get to just relax...

and more than anything else i'm excited to spend time with my grandma.

i don't know that i've ever told you much about her, but she's the greatest human being i've ever met.

if there was one person i have ever wanted to grow up to be like, it is her.
i don't truly think that i can describe how lovely she is, you would just have to meet her.

she's so very crafty, quick-witted and humble.

but yes, i would just like to be able to spend this spring break soaking up whatever bits of her wonderful-ness (?) that i can. i think we're going to be doing a bit of sewing together, and who knows what else. hopefully baking bread...drinking tea...talking about how ridiculous my grandpa is...building a coat rack (yeah, she's quite the carpenter as well)...and watching dumb & dumber (her favorite movie)...

just thinking about it makes me smile....eeeekkk!

see...isn't she lovely?
