The weather the past few days has been absolutely gorgeous - it feels like May instead of March. This is good news because this same weekend last year, we got two feet of snow. We'll take the 60-degree weather any day! The crocus have bloomed in the garden, and the daffodils are starting to peak through the ground. Hopefully it means spring is really here!
As for our week...Kim's mom is in town for a few days, so we've enjoyed spending time with her (and Kim's dad, too!).
On Friday night, we headed to a fish fry with several friends (Julia, Tony, Stacy and BJ). After finally finding a place that wasn't sold out of fish yet (don't they know it's lent!?), we had a good time talking, laughing and eating a boatload (no, really) full of fish.
The Flyers ended regular season play at home on Saturday. And of course, we were there to cheer them on. The game was a big deal as we were playing for seeding and a first-round bye in the A-10 tourney. After coming out a little flat, the Flyers pulled out a big win over the Dukes. This win was also a big deal for other reasons - we went undefeated at home (first time to do that since our current arena opened in 1969), won 25 games (highest in school history) and had the largest number of tickets sold in a season. Phew! We also tied for second in the league, but ended up seeded third due to the tie breaker. Atlantic City, here we come!
In honor of the nice weather, we picked up the yard today and took Peanut to the dog park. He wasn't nearly as wild as he is some days - maybe he's starting to grow out of the puppy stage! There were over 15 other dogs there, though, so he had a great time running around.
Current gas price: $1.93/gallon.
