Holy buckets!  I've spent the last 2 days doing all manner of things including, but not limited to:  

Shopping for legos with my son at Wal-Mart...on Saturday morning
Buying plants at Wal-Mart with 3 children in tow...on Saturday morning
Coming home and planting some of the plants in our ever popular container garden
Making a very lurvey t-shirt dress using Michael Grace's tutorial
Working on another block for a baby blanket that I'm making for a friend of the family who is having a little boy next month ala Country Cousins Blanket
Cleaning out our gawd-awful shed
Planting more plants in our raised garden and in our container garden


.....but in all wonderousness, Spring is finally here and I'm lovin' life. My outside "room" is just as wonderful as any of my inside rooms. The hostas look better right now than they did all of last year. My lillies are budding up and ready to go. Our hydrangeas are coming back along with our rhodedendrons. I look over at our bitty lilac and I think I can't wait to see that sucker in about 10 years. Little by little and bit by bit...we're making this place into ours...our home.

Home again, home again jiggity jig...

....goodness sakes!

We just got home from my Brother & sister-in-laws house! What would have normally taken us 5-1/2 to 6 hours took us the better part of 8 hours to achieve. We're home though...thankfully home. :)
