Sounds like a busy day! Elizabeth cracks me up!! I have been going through clothes today switching out winter/spring/summer things trying to figure out who needs what ( I thought I only had 2 pairs of shorts for Kathryn, but I found a box with tonz and now I have too many!!) Anyway it is suppose to be cold (50's) this weekend. Feel like I can't put winter fully away yet- long sleeve weather lingers.
