For us, as it is for many, this is one of our favorite times of the year. For the next 3 weekends it's all college basketball at our house. We have a long standing group, with newcomers always welcome, that we enter the ESPN Tournament Challenge with our brackets and it's all about the bragging rights! If we're not cheering for anyone specific, it's all about the underdog. It's good stuff.
I haven't enjoyed as much of it as I would like or gotten much else done around here since I've again been sick for the last 5 days (2 months ago I had strep incase you missed that post) and whatever this is I have has wiped me out as well. Ada has been sick and now Emilie is starting with it. This winter has seemed to last forever! Last week we had 3 days of beautiful weather, near 60 degree temps and sunshine. Today - snow. Seriously! Somebody in the weather department has a warped sense of humor!
The highlight of our day, besides March Madness, is the Blairs stopped by to hang out for a while. They spent the last 2 days downtown and then came out to see us today. It was just Tom, Heather, Becca and James, but fun to have them none the less. Becca helped the girls make these cute basketball standards out of mini cupcakes and sugar cookies.
It was nice to have a little excitement around our house since we really have had any for the last few days. I think we're all going a little stir crazy since we really haven't gone anywhere. Oh I hate being sick. I 'm so tired of winter. Thank goodness for a few hours with family and endless basketball to lift my spirits!

So I am so glad to see you blogging again!! We were worried about you - I am sorry to hear you are feeling well - that stuff is really going around - both Bill and I have had it for about 3 weeks now and several doctor vists later - things are on the up swing! Hand in there - this too shall pass!!
Love you-
Sharon
Oh I hope this doesn't last 3 weeks! One has been enough for me! I'm ready to be done!
P.S. Glad to hear you and Bill are feeling better. Although I'm sure Bill started feeling sick again Thursday night when BYU lost.
Love you too!
You are just asking for trouble when you make comments like that. Lets just say after the boys got back from the game that night, There was not one happy face and alot of we don't want to talk about its!! My dad took us all to mesquite and they went to the games everyday. Mom and I chilled at the condo. It was Fab. Wish you could of been there, Sounds like you could use a little bit of
