Happy Homemaker Monday

{weather outside:}

Gorgeous! Almost 50 degrees and sunny! Between Daylight Savings Time and the warm weather, I think I may have a touch of Spring fever today.

{breakfast this morning:}

Oatmeal with cinnamon and blueberries.

{outside my window:}

Sun is shining and snow is melting!

{right now I am:}

Drinking my tea while the boys nap. They were exhausted after spending all morning in the backyard tromping around in their snow pants and boots through the melting snow.

{as I look around my house:}

Since we were out all morning, it's pretty tidy at the moment, aside from the pile of wet snow gear by the door. The whole house is bright and warm (I actually turned the heat down a little!) and I'm enjoying the picture gallery wall that my husband hung for me over the weekend.
