And, yes, now I have that Counting Crows song in my head … “Round here we always stand up straight/Round here something radiates/Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand/Said she’d like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis/She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land/Just like she’s walking on a wire in the circus …”
We’re looking forward to celebrating Easter with resurrection eggs, resurrection rolls, The Promise, a breakfast potluck at our church Sunday morning, time with family and a couple egg hunts.
We have a boy in big boy underpants! Y’all I was dreading potty training Ben. I thought it was going to be frustrating and nearly impossible. But my boy has proven me wrong, and this is a time I’m so, so glad. He’s had some accidents, but he’s keeping his undies dry at home, while we’re out and at preschool on a regular basis. Whew.
We’ve jumped on the Florida Gulf Coast University bandwagon. These guys are so fun to watch. Seriously, I’ve never seen so many lobs and dunks. With neither of my favorite teams playing in March Madness, I hope FGCU wins a few more.
We’re starting to have renters at The Gathering Place, our lake house vacation rental. There’s some openings on the calendar, though, if you’re looking for a getaway and want this view.
We’re trying to embrace real life right where we are. And now I have this lovely reminder to dream God-sized dreams. I also have some fun blog posts in the works in conjunction with some of my dreamer friends, so stay tuned! {Want that bracelet?

We watched our first-ever episode of Duck Dynasty last night. Admittedly, I laughed and then repeated part of the episode my friend Holly missed when she returned to the room. But, still, I don’t anticipate becoming a fan. Right now I’d rather watch “The Good Wife” on Sunday nights or “Damages,” courtesy Netflix other nights. I’ve also read “The Survivor” by Diann Mills and “Deadly Pursuit” by Irene Hannon and started “Lethal Legacy” by Irene Hannon this month.
What have you been doing and reading and watching and dreaming and celebrating?
