Spring

I am so happy it is spring! Lilacs are blooming, the grass is growing (known by the fact that my hubby has already mowed several times this year- he even mowed the neighbor's lawn the other day because their mower is broken and the neighbor is injured) and everything is bright and sunshine-y. We get so busy in the spring because we just want to be outside! One of my favorite things to do is to dig in the garden with DD. Planting flowers, moving rocks, pulling weeds. We have spent the majority of our time outside in the last week, and it is fantastic!

Yesterday i spent the majority of my day catching up with a friend I have had since elementary school, I think. If not then shortly thereafter. It was *so nice to see her! We haven't seen each other since my wedding, which has been a long time. We spent 12 hours chatting while our kids played and napped. :)

Such a great day!

One of my Loves

I love fabric.

I am sure it has been mentioned before, but I do. I like to make baby clothes, pillow cases, quilts, and whatever else I can find that is fun. My wonderful Mom is a quilter and has a fantastic quilt room for me to use, plus she always helps when I need help! She also does a lot of Little Missy watching for me while I sew. I have gotten largely out of doing any hobbies since I first started getting morning sickness. Well, I am really feeling an urge to get back working on stuff. This morning I have been searching the internets and looking at fabric. Be still my heart. Moda is amazing, but also my downfall. They always have a new line out that makes me want to shop. Mmmm.... Moda. I have a ton of cleaning to do today and I think I am going to daydream about what I can do with one of the new layer cakes I want, or the jelly roll that is calling my name from my fabric stash.

I love fabric.

I have considered...

...whether to further address the whole blog deletion thing, and I've decided to address it this way:

I am aware (and was before yesterday) of what is available on The Google. I love The Google. :) I have decided, in lieu of a recent and extreme interest in me, that I do not want a private blog. I did not want to reopen that same one, and I did not feel like going through and deleting all of my photos from the previous blog. I also was not going to make them just be out there again. So I deleted it. I saved a copy and am ordering a book of it, which will be pretty cool! No big hardship. It wasn't done in anger, it was done simply because I have nothing to hide, and having my blog private makes it look that way. There is and will continue to be nothing vile or salacious in any screen shots that someone wants to find. There will continue to be nothing in this blog. I am pretty much excessively boring and haven't figured out the big interest in me. :) I love my life, so I am definitely not using boring as a derogatory term to describe myself. It is perfect for me! I will continue about my merry way, and I will update this if I feel so inclined.

:)

btw- these are photos of my project from yesterday:

This is the cabinet door, sans paint.

This is the finished chalkboard and the finished stool. My hubs made this stool out of wood in the barn! He did a great job and Little Missy loves it! She stands on it and says, "I like it! I like it!" Now that it is painted she also says "Pretty! Is it pretty?" It is for her to get in and out of her big girl bed, btw. :)
