The Farm Chicks Show '11

Well, I can check off "The Farm Chicks Show"

off my bucket list!  

Daughter & I traveled three hours by plane to get there, and then enjoyed almost a week in Washington/Idaho.   It was fun, I just wish we could have bought some BIG stuff.  I've decided this a great way to attend a show and not spend too much money! 

Getting My Life Back.

WHEW...

Time to get my life back!

However, I haven't missed blogging.
Does anyone read my blog??? (thanks to the two that do)

Weddings, Parties, Graduation...over

Looking forward to some fun this summer.

I think my garden felt sorry for me...

It grew some lettuce by itself...artichokes too.
It misses me, wants me to plant stuff in its soil!

Why I don't BLOG lately

I've been busy the last month, and realized the next will even be crazier. The last few weeks...

• I hosted a pom-pom making party (decorations for a friends wedding)


• Take daughter for a photo shoot, get announcements made for graduation


• Lead a Bible study weekly for ladies


• Shopping for all wedding stuff


• Teen boys over for an all-nighter dinner, video games, etc.

The next few weeks...

• Make costumes for Easter play at the church


• A few trips down to the flower mart... (long drive)


• Make floral centerpiece arrangements for a spring event at The Ronald Regan Library


• Go to rehearsals and be in Easter play


• doctors appointment


• Son's birthday


• Easter (I want to decorate)


• refinish 2 tables (needed for wedding)


• Coordinate wedding, reception... make decorations & then decorate


• Daughter's college graduation


• Party for daughter


• Son in marathon (this will be so fun to watch!)

REALLY, WHO HAS TIME TO BLOG???

The Last Window IN... yipeee!

Celebrate... The last window in! This was a long project, not only did we replace the windows, we removed the old frames and made new ones. We do feel the house is a little more sturdy.

notice the three beams in the room...

they are holding up the celine while we build a stronger frame.

This project is stressful!

Now we get to frame the windows with wood. One project done, 5000 to go!

We should adopt!

I saw this blog... http://tulipandturnip.blogspot.com/2011/03/more-stenciled-onesies.html and decided I needed another kid because I want to buy this outfit.

It made me laugh so hard!

Some things look BETTER with SNOW

Although, it is sunny and 75 degrees outside,

I'm reminded of two weeks ago

when we had a beautiful dusting of 3" of white.

The snow just encourages me to get rid of the ugly red roof!

He melts my heart!
