I think I am safe in saying that Spring has FINALLY sprung. It hasn't been all that obvious, because although we do have buds on trees and bushes, and daffodils and tulips ready to pop...it was 37 degrees on Tuesday. Lovely. However, yesterday was sunny and 60, today is going to be 71, and tomorrow is supposed to be 81. Yes, I know the temps could take a nose dive again, but here's hoping we have at least seen the last of snow.
Anyhoo, along with Spring generally comes some Spring cleaning. Yipee. The garage and basement have already been done, thanks to the hubby, and I will be doing some more on the homefront this afternoon. In addition to the house, however, I decided to do a little spring cleaning of the old blog. My blogroll, "They Said What" was in dire need of some updating. Today the cobwebs have been dusted away and some new additions have bloomed in their spot. I hope you will enjoy reading them as much as I do.
Lynette at The Best Things in Life are Three isn't really a new addition, she just changed the name of her blog and got a snazzy new look. She is one of my favorite bloggy friends, so be sure to pay her a visit.
'Nines and 'Quines is written by a friend that I have known since elementary school . We recently reconnected at our 20 year reunion and through Facebook. Too much fun!
Classy Chaos is a blog I have just recently had the pleasure of finding. She is very witty and has made me laugh on more than one occasion. Glad I found her!
Helen at My Bloggie Thingy is the mom to a very cute little guy, who also happens to be great fodder for her blog. She also seems to comment just when I need it the most.
Whiskey in My Sippy Cup is another blog that I have only just begun to enjoy. She just won a BlogHer blog of the week award, and when you read her, you will understand why.
Jules at The Roost has given me inspiration on many occasions through her words and faith.
Welcome to my World is written by my uncle. He rocks for lots of reasons. He is truly one of the most intelligent, articulate and eloquent people I know. I am a big, big fan! Plus, I love him lots too.
That wraps up the new additions for this Spring. I promise these great bloggers will not disappoint!
Of course, some oldies but goodies stayed on the list, so be sure to "clap a howdy" on them as well. One of those sticking around is Chased by Children, who I just found out has extended (due to technical difficulites) the deadline to enter her choclate contest. The new deadline is tomorrow, hope you win!
I feel so honored with your wonderful comments about me and my blog. I am seriously blushing. Have fun with the spring cleaning! And enjoy the awesome weather that is coming your way. (Encourage it to keep traveling east, would ya?)

Ergh. I have to do this too. I will soon, I promise. :) For now I'll just enjoy your clean house/blog.

Thanks!!! Right back atcha' Babe!!!
What a great idea...I've been so proud of myself for NOT having to spring clean due to my new organizational ways (and a cleaning lady every 2 weeks - sssshhh) never thought about the blog!

My beautiful niece! Thanks for the very kind and loving remarks about me and my blog. I'm chagrined that I didn't read "Spring Cleaning" until this morning.
I have been away from my blog too long but finally added an entry last night and realized that I hadn't checked your blog for a while. I love your blog. It is fresh, witty, clever, and makes me feel more a part of your life by knowing what's going on with one of my most favorite young families. I am so proud of you.
I was pleasantly surprised to see my blog referenced on yours, and in such a nice way. It shows how nice you are.
I love you. Can't wait to see you all at the lake!

So where are you? Has Mt. Laundry swallowed you up or did the spring cleaning do you in? Check back, you're missed!
