It feels like fall

 The trees here are weird.  I don't know what kind of tree they are, but they shed their leave in the spring.  Yes, in the spring.  Last Friday was rainy, a little chilly, and the leaves on the tree were yellow and littering the ground.  If I didn't know any better I would have sworn it was October, but no it's May.  Don't believe me? 
Here are some pics I took on Friday.  Excuse the crappiness of the pics, I was taking them through the window of my car with the crappy little camera. 

Spring is coming

*Sigh* I saw the first of the blooms start appearing on the trees today. Usually I am very excited for spring, but not so much this year. This year the warmer weather is a harbinger of our impending move. I knew it was temporary when we came, but I didn't realize how comfortable I would become. I know most of it is because of Babes. She has become very attached to my mom and my father in law, I feel almost guilty knowing that I will be taking her away and she will not be able to just call Big Mama or be only two hours away.
It is also VERY easy to live here. I don't have to think 6 weeks into the future in terms of supplies and toys. If I want something I can just go out to the store. And as bad as it is, I even find things I didn't know that I needed (which is why it's probably better that we are leaving the US).
We even have a very nice weekly routine. Our days are filled with activities that keep us busy and often take us away from the apartment.
Though it might be nice to get away from the depressing ever present news about the economy, the housing market, and the DOOM TO US ALL!
