Hi all!! Happy belated Easter if you celebrate and Happy Earth Day! I hope you all had a great weekend! Friday we had dinner at my brother’s house where we had a blast, hanging out and chatting while our kids were just being kids around us, the way it should be. Then yesterday we took a family hike by the lake, spotted lots of water birds, and then went for Easter dinner at my cousin’s house. She went out of her way to make a fun Easter for my son and niece. Her kids are grown, but my cousin put Easter Eggs all over the yard for the kids to find, and Wyatt loved it! My niece wasn’t able to make it, so Wyatt got all the treasures! It was a great weekend!
I am finally feeling myself. All last week I was a bit a run down and gross, my allergies were acting up like crazy, and I just wasn’t me. I had no get up and go, and to top it off, I was in a bit of a reading slump. I finally settled in with the perfect book though, and it is one one of my favorite reads so far this year. So from the slump I emerged with a new book to rave over!
Read Last Week:
In my slump, I picked this book up off of my bedside pile, and was immediately drawn into this micro world. This little books is a calm, gentle, beautiful read, one that speaks of perseverance and appreciating life. I completely loved it. Look for post hopefully this week!
Reading This Week:
I have been horrible about following my reading plans this month. Things just aren’t sticking. This week I am going to read my book club book Bohemian for sure, and then I’m going to read Bonavere Howl. Here’s to hoping I can stick to my plan!

Sometimes when we feel off our book love flies out the window too. Your Easter with family sounds wonderful and I hope Wyatt will remember it as a wonderful time.

He had such a good time! I try to spend as much time with my family as we can, I always did as a kid and have such great relationships with them all. They are my heart! And you are right, when you don’t feel good sometimes it is hard to read!

He had such a good time! And of course loved eating all the candy in the eggs too. Lol.
It’s a really short read, but it was fascinating!

Yes, I really loved it!! I have my friends on snail watch – if they find one, I want it. LOL.
I am a bit behind on everything this week – I was injured by a bike rack altercation on Sunday and have two black eyes! I am laying low to heal up this week, but should be posting again hopefully by the weekend. 🙂

Earth Day was just another day for us as it was the first day of spring break. What a catchy title for that memoir. I’m intrigued about it as I haven’t read a memoir for some time now.
