Well hello mid-March! Besides the fact that you aren’t exactly bringing the weather I would like to see (aka no snow!), you aren’t treating me too shabby this year. You and I have a love-hate relationship, but so far I’m mostly feelin’ the love. Thanks for that!

This weekend leads up to St. Patrick’s Day on Monday! Irish on Ionia is always a fun event, maybe we’ll partake? Maybe we’ll have our own Irish celebration on the couch in PJ’s? Maybe we’ll do some things around the house (BIG things coming for Bellewood!). Maybe we’ll do none of the above. Michigan State Basketball is WITHOUT a doubt on the agenda.

I love March!!

Friday Forte:

{a night spent in with champagne & beer soaking in our extra hour of daylight}
