Like New People

Spring has finally sprung here in Watertown, NY and we could not be any happier! We feel like brand new people, ready to take on the outdoors! We have been in the stroller, the wagon, the slide, the swing, and used chalk on the driveway. We are out of the weather depression finally!!
To backtrack a bit... On Thursday we took a trip up to Lowville for the afternoon and evening and we had just the best day! We walked downtown and browsed through their many gift shops. They have a new shop called "Crop, Paper, Scissors" It was a new scrapbooking shop and it had the best supplies I've seen in a while. I purchased a few goodies and then we headed back to the house. Seth loved scoping out new territory and he followed his Great Grandpa around the yard.


Ro met up with us later in the afternoon and Gram made one of my favorite meals... italian pot roast with fresh green beans and her homemade antipasta salad followed by strawberry cheesecake! We went home stuffed as always.

We ran out of time this trip to get up close to these massive pieces of equipment, but I was able to stop on the side of the road to take a pic of the Lewis County Wind Mill Farm. I'm not sure about details, but I think there are over a 100 windmills up on Tug Hill creating wind power. From a distance they cover the skyline, but up close they remind me of the toy transformers from back in the 80's.
Speaking of the 80's... I have been invited to an 80's night this Friday and I need my bloggy friends to give me some ideas as to clothing choices! Help a girl out please!!

Definitely tight rolled stone wash jeans, and maybe some leg warmers, like Flashdance. And definitely tease your hair!!

You could also crimp your hair!! Jess suggested different colored slouch socks, a flourescent band in your hair, bangle bracelets, picture Madonna or the girl in The Wedding Singer. You better take pictures!!
