It's finally Eric's spring break...a much needed vacation from class and stress to enjoy nice, sunny, warm weather. The idea of a spring break sounds wonderful; that is until you remember that you're in Toledo, it's only the first part of March, and you read a weather report like this online:
"Winter Storm Warning - Lucas County (Ohio)
TOLEDO...BOWLING GREEN...PORT CLINTON...
FINDLAY

Sounds lovely doesn't it??
Now, I like the snow (occasionally.) But come March, I am so ready for some sunshine! Is this winter weather ever going to let up?? Let's just say that I'm looking forward to basking in the 40 degree weather in good old SLC...that will feel like HEAVEN!

We still braved the cold and blowing snow this morning to go celebrate Eric's much needed break by getting breakfast at Panera. Yum! Can't let a little snowstorm slow ya down!

Have fun in Salt Lake Lindsay! I hope none of your flights are delayed or cancelled. We'll see in a week!
When will it ever be spring here? I am glad you will be going somewhere at least a little warmer. Have a great break!
Have fun in Utah. We will miss you and Sam at library time!
how was panera breakfast? I didn't even know they had breakfast there! we miss you guys like crazy already! the sun is actually shining today. I bet all the snow will be gone by the time that you get home
I'm so jealous that you're going to be in balmy Utah this week! Erik decided to abandon me for warmer weather this week too.
Don't worry about me.....
