Itching for a Porject!!

I've got the itch to start some projects!

I came across this Etsy site (Maya Made) that has me thinking...(Thanks Bonnie!)
I think I may break out the sewing machine and see if I can whip out these cute burlap buckets!

Now for stenciling something clever on the front....any ideas?

Eggs and Bunny Ears

We had a quiet Easter at home this year.  Unfortunately my hubby and daughter were sick.  But we tried to do as much as we could to make the day special!  


We had an Easter Egg Hunt, made Easter Bunny Ears, and Enjoyed the day together


Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!

Grow Baby Grow

Our Garden

Our first garden is growing!  I'm so excited!  It feels like such an accomplishment to work hard planting and when all your hard work starts to sprout it makes you smile! And I love things that make me smile!


Green Beans

Squash

While I was tending to our garden my little one was tending to her flowers....well they are actually weeds but she thinks they are pretty.  She wanted to help them grow so she decided to blast them with her bubble gun

Spring is in the air

Today was another gorgeous day!  I just love this time of year! We planted our first fruit and vegetable garden a few weeks ago and just a few days ago our seeds popped up to greet us!  It's not very big...I figured I would start off small just in case I ended up killing everything.  Ashlynn is just so excited that her garden is growing -- now hopefully it will produce some fruit and veggies!

Rejuvenating Weekend

This weekend has been quite relaxing and rejuvenating!  Our little princess had her first slumber party this weekend.  She is having a blast playing her little heart out!  Mommy and Daddy miss her very much but are enjoying not having responsibilities!

Today I went shopping all day! Something I haven't done in a very long.  I went from store to store just browsing -- so relaxing.  I read magazines and did a pedicure in peace :)

I'm excited for her to come home tomorrow and give her a huge hug!  I'm a refreshed mommy!!!

Productive Day

Hello Friday, thank you for gracing us with your presence today!  I'm going to make today a productive day -- maybe if I say it aloud it will happen!  I'm going to attempt to go to the grocery store again with my little princess.  This trip is going to be quick and short....last week I spend most of the time picking up groceries she would take out of the basket, convincing her to sit down in her seat, and basically wanting to pull my hair out by the time I was done....any advice on keeping a toddler occupied while shopping would be much appreciated! :)  She is such a good little girl, but when we hit the store I think she forgets...

Then I'm going to attack the dishes and fold the mountains of laundry I did yesterday.  Yes, it's going to be a productive day....I think I may need to say that continually throughout the day so it will actually all happen!

Happy Friday - Make today a productive day!  It always feels good at the end of the day and you've accomplished a lot!
