Just a Post of my Little Life


Lilacs :)


I made my bed and thought I should have documentation of it!


What I do on Saturdays:


I try to make these things nice and shiny!


And I try to park them.

:)


Some baby birdies I found today.


I feel like that little bird sometimes :)


And another birdie built her nest in my hanging basket.




I got this bird bath for...

Have a good day friends!

A Few Sewing Projects


Just a few of my recent projects:


This skirt was a matching mother/ daughter set I made for someone.






The end of their easter treasure hunt.



The lastest addition to our family.

(I think training it is almost as much work as a real baby.)



Sebastian on his yard sale bike that I snagged for 15.oo!

We were both thrilled!

Gardening!


When we had our first warm spirt back in the middle of March

I planted my peas and onions.

About 4 snows later I began to think I was completely out of my mind!

But much to my delight the seeds didn't rot but came up nicely!

I'm so glad spring is here to stay!

Finally!!






A week or two ago I planted the rest of my garden and the little plants are starting to show their faces!

I keep hearing these quail/ bob whites and once in a while they venture in my yard!

I love living in the woods and seeing all kinds of wild life!





My dad had a pile of stuff he was going to burn from a box lot he bought at an auction.

The apple not falling far from the tree

my son thought we COULD NOT burn such 'useful' stuff!

He heroically saved this basket from it's fire-y doom!

I spray painted it

and wah- lah!

It was a Mother's day gift basket!

Happy Mothers Day to all the Mommas out there!

Be lazy like me and enjoy your day!!
