Hoppy Easter! Hoppy Weekend!

I hope every one has a very beautiful Easter weekend.  I just realized that I've got several things for my little girl's Easter Basket, but no basket!  I'm on a mad mission today to find the right one.  Here's hoping that happens.  I know she won't know care how cute her basket is, but I do.  HaHa.  I'll post pics next week of how it all pulls together.



 

He is Risen!  Have a wonderful Easter!

Nine Months

Yesterday I had an appointment to get Liv's nine month pictures taken.  We met our very talented photographer, Rhiannon Trask at Shelter Gardens.  This was the first time Liv had any pictures taken  outside that were professional, and the weather couldn't have been more perfect had I requested it special.  She really loves it outside, and I think Rhiannon (known as Lollipop Photography- I think it's such a clever name!) snapped some great shots of my little Boo Boo.  Last night Rhiannon posted this sneak peek on Facebook and I literally gasped.



How blessed am I?  My cup runneth over.

~Spring is in the Air~

I don't think Missouri is the only place that Spring arrived to early.  It's been fabulous to enjoy so much of the beauty that Spring brings.  I find that I'm desperate for birds chirping, frogs croaking, lawn mowers running, even allergies after having to go through winter.  Everything dies in winter, and there is no green in sight...unless you live in the Pacific Northwest.  Which, sadly I do not.  I am certainly not the person that has a green thumb, but this year I find myself wanting to dig in the earth.  To plant something and watch it grow.  I'm not sure if it's the mom in me or something else that awakened this, but I do want to garden.  We'll see if I make good on this.  Here are some beautiful pictures I found on Pinterest that speak spring to me. 



Peonies.  So gorgeous.

Daffodils.  So happy!

Beautiful Hydrangas!

Tulips.  Spring's pefection.
