A Burst of Spring

Yesterday we enjoyed our visit to the flower show put on by a local florist at a store downtown.  It was beautiful and the air was scented with all kinds of wonderful smells.  For an hour or two it seemed like spring!

I hope you enjoyed your weekend too!

St. Patrick's Day

For dinner, along with a wee bit 'o Irish music, we had shamrock-shaped sandwiches, green jello and green beans, and these parfaits which were a big hit.

Scenes from a Birthday

Yesterday my baby turned 11.  Conveniently no one had school.

After picking her up from a sleepover and after a bit of silliness, the four of us headed to DQ. Hubby was toiling away to pay the bills.

At age eleven you still do things like this.

A chocolate dipped cone is preferred over Blizzards or anything else.

A short while later we went to the discount movie theater where Tangled was showing.

Luckily there wasn't much time between getting home and dad's return from work so that gifts could be opened.

A body pillow was on her wish list. The lovely fur case was a surprise!

The girls all slept in the living room in tents to end the day. The party with friends is next weekend!  It seems that being 11 is a lot of fun!  We love you!
