GTL before FLA!

In three days, I will be soaking up the sun in south Florida with my boys and family.

But first, I have to GTL! You know... hit the gym, go for a tan, and oh yeah, tackle that huge pile of laundry!

I cannot wait to leave this cold, miserable weather behind! I'm really not a huge fan of winter, if you haven't been able to figure that out yet. And lately, it has been really cold here—minus 40 degrees cold!

However, on the days that I do manage to bundle up my children and go to the neighbourhood park for some fun on the skating rink, I do enjoy myself. For about 30 minutes, max.

Then I'm bribing the kids with hot chocolate and extra whipped cream, telling them it's time to go home. Once we get home, we start the process of taking off all our winter gear, leaving a trail of soggy mittens, snowpants and snow covered hats in a pile, as we rush towards the fireplace to warm up... of course, getting our socks all wet as we unavoidably step in the mushy snow.

I can't say I'm going to miss the coats and the boots and the hats next week while we're in Florida. Crocs, flip flops, tank tops and flowy summer dresses are much more to my liking!

I promise I will be thinking of you as I sip my pina colada by the pool, while looking at the beautiful ocean.
