Was a pretty nice day outside.....so we headed out!! It was finally nice to see some color out in our yard! It had been so bleak and bleary for what seemed like forever, I so love Spring, everything has such a new look!!! Cause well, it's new!!
My free spirit so loves when she doesn't have to wear a jacket! She was in total hog heaven!!!
I don't know why but I just LOVE this expression on his face...maybe cause I can't figure out if it's amazement, wonderment, concentration, I'm just not sure, but it's so darn cute on my baby!!!
That's what he was looking at in his previous picture, he got this rocket last year for his birthday....and he played with it a little , but honestly cause it's an outside thing when we came in I stuck it in his closet and we both forgot about it, but now it's out...and won't be forgotten about!!
Look at that blue sky!!!! Honestly it only stayed that way about an hour or so after we got out.....then it turned dreary looking and it got windy and I swear the temp dropped like 20 degrees......sadly enough for Thunder the next day...it was nasty!
Did someone say CHEESE????????????????
Have a I mentioned I LOVE tulips?????
My creeping Phlox are finally starting to bloom!!! Woot......I planted a lot of perennials last year and it's really nice to start to see the hard work paying off, my goal is to keep planting more and more perennials every year until I don't really have to plant anything and just do maintenance.
Look how big Licorice has gotten, and mischievous as well! One of many thing she's gotten her mouth on in the back yard....I try to tell them not to leave anything out that they don't want her to mess up, cause she will find it!
Look at that face.........but she knows when he's doing something that she's not suppose to be doing!!
I am absolutely worn completely out! I crawled into bed around 2 this morning I believe after the party at my parents house. I felt like I was non-stop all day, until the fireworks started then I got to sit for a while. I know my mother was worn out, but I think she had a good time too.....everyone seemed to have enjoyed themselves.....I felt bad like I didn't get to mingle with everyone but there were so many more people this year, and I tried, but I felt like I was getting pulled so many ways.....
So anyway I'm too tired to put up all the pictures from the night, I might try to do that Tuesday night once the kids head to Mamaw's......today we relaxed! I threw Pioneer Woman's Pot Roast in the Oven (a must try if you haven't already) and just let it cook , we rode out to my parents to pick up everything we had been taking out there all week and to see if there was anything we could do.....so I took some pictures of some of my mom's flowers.
I've been messing with my camera more lately , trying to figure out how to use more of the settings, and I'm actually starting to read the book, honestly and truly I wish I had read the book that went to a camera years ago! I could have been taking better pictures! Though on the blueish purple flower up above I wish I had picked the dead ones off first before I took the picture.
Anyhoo.....I think I'm just going to finish sipping on my home-made chocolate shake that James made me and put on my jammies and head to bed! I'm positive I'm going to have a long day at work tomorrow, we have two docs coming back off of vacation, and it was a three day weekend for all and a four day weekend for some, so we have a lot of catching up to do!
And here I'll leave you with a little teaser......
