Spring is in the air so I thought I'd share what the Cannon's have been up to since the warm weather has finally shown up.
It's been a crazy couple of weeks around here. My kids have been sick since St. Patrick's Day. From strep to ear infections, to a contusion on the foot bone they've had it all. We are finally on the mend & I am sure Dr. Albino is glad to have a break from my kids cause she's been seeing their faces quite a bit lately. During that time my Granny passed away so I took a quick trip up to Alabama to be a pall bearer in her funeral. She always had a good sense of humor and decided that she wanted her granddaughters to be her pall bearers and wear her favorite color red with jeans. It was a beautiful service and I was honored to be a part of it. While I was up in Bama my mom showed me this picture of my Granny and I just loved it. It depicts her in her element. She loved being outdoors - hunting, taking care of her flowers, or leading her unassuming grandchildren to "the branch" to romp in the water. We loved spending our time at Granny's with our cousins. We always had a good time.
My mom came back to Florida with me and spent Easter with us. We had an egg hunt at MawMaw & PawPaw's on Saturday. We went to church with them on Sunday. The kids had a great Easter they really enjoyed having their Nannie here with them. Monday morning we woke up early to watch the shuttle launch from our backyard. It's so neat to watch it launch while it is still dark outside. It's incredible that we have such a good view from way over here.
I only have a few more days of Spring Break left, it has gone by so fast. We still have plans to finish remodeling Caroline's room with a paint job. We finally got her toddler bed out so now all that's left is some paint. I did get the chance to clean out & reorganize the kids' closets. Wow, that was a task. So it's off to spend the last few days of Spring Break with my family & eat the rest of my kids' Easter candy. Watch out Lifesaver Gummies - Here I come!
