I'm not back--well not completely...  I miss blogging and all my bloggin' buddies, but it has been nice to have the extra hour or three that I used to spend on the computer every day to do things with Kate and all the family that has been visiting.  One. more. visitor. to. go.  Scott's (real) dad is in town (more on that later)--we just had Grandma and Papa for a month--his sister for a week and one of my best buds for a 6 days (are ya kiddin' me?)  Any advice on how to make the desert look less attractive during the winter months--send it my way!   Happy spring...
