So the tax rebate is coming out soon.  We are expecting back about $1800, between having two kids and my husband and myself, its kinda exciting. I really want to get myself a new camera lens, but i dont see that happening. As we need to pay our rent, but i might be able to get something. Im not too sure yet. At least at this point, i dont have to worry about using it to buy the boys birthday gifts.

So tell me, what are you planning on doing with your tax rebate? Click the link above and fill out my poll!

I went to my moms today. To help her with the yard work. My stepfather works out of town on a rotating shift, so he is out sometimes for weeks at a time. Today we cleaned up some of the flower and garden beds. We managed to clean up some stuff and get her house ready to be painted.

Lillies and tulips

Tulip Bud

We also were surprised to see the tulips putting out buds! Its kinda early for our area but awesome! There is a bit of green grass coming up and even the lilac bush has some sprouts on it. Im really excited, im so ready for spring to be here. Its a long time coming it feels like but within 2 weeks we should be greening up. if not sooner. We had a bit of a rain, big fat drops, for about 20 minutes today, and lots of afternoon sprinkles. All of it helps in getting the trees to green up. In fact it looks as though its going to rain some more.

My kids at the moment, are using my coffee table to bounce their ball back and forth. At least B will PLAY with C. So thats a step in the right direction, and my husband thinks we should take a 300 mile drive tonight. So im going to sign off. Talk my husband out of the trip, tuck my kids in bed and enjoy a quiet evening.
