Hey girls! Today is a cold, rainy day here so I thought I'd blog about the nice warm spring week we had here last week! This little "gate" is in my main flower garden area, which is under our big living room window. This is the area that I really plant the most flowers in; then I add some flower pots to the porch and the shaded area on the opposite side of the porch where my tiger lilies and hosta's are. Brian hung hooks for me last year so I made up some of my own hanging baskets and had those in the front too. This year I am planning to do more landscaping to the grassy area in front of our porch and I hope to get some new things planted in the back. I am just EAGER to plant in general!!
Here is my bright and cheery garden flag that I have out right now :) The butterfly is supposed to spin in the wind too.
We actually had a day last week when it was warm enough to wear shorts!!
Gage took his tractor out for a spin!!
Now that is either a look of determination in his eyes, or pure mischief!! What do you think?
The pic above is of the large maple tree in our front yard... with buds!!! YAY!
My tiger lilies have grown over a foot already! I can't wait for them to bloom ♥
*************************************************************************************So one week from today is my Math final, which I so need to get NO lower than a B on to pass this class. My other class ends on May 7th. I will be done collecting data for my job next Wednesday too:) I am trying to focus and get through the next couple weeks then I will have a couple weeks of doing nothing more than the ordinary- housework, being a mommy, etc. Then summer classes will start up and Gavin will be on summer vacation. I look forward to my "BREAK" so much! I need to find time to relax and "craft" a little ♥
Thanks so much to all you gals who have lended an ear to me lately:) Its nice to know that I have so many people that care; both here at home and as far away as Canada!! Your kinds words brighten each one of my days!!
Love ya,
Noelle ♥

Thanks for posting our button!
We were just admiring our Maple tree today, too. Kind of cheering it on! We've got colder weather again, too! That's Spring for ya!
Let's see... I think Gage was plotting something fun! ☺
It has been a nasty indiana day for sure...but I know warmer weather is coming. By the way, my sister is going to be getting married and she is looking for somewhere to have the ceremony outside. She looked at the Oliver Mansion last weekend, do you have any other ideas!?!
It's been raining here the last 3 days so I haven't been able to go out and work in my flowerbeds/gardens but they're saying sun and much milder temps for the next few days so things are looking up:-) I know what you mean about being anxious to plant flowers. Unfortunately I can't plant anything until the end of May, otherwise there's still a chance of frost. So, for now, the only flowers I can enjoy are the crocuses, tulips, irises and daffodils that are slowly coming up in my front flowerbeds:-) Only the crocuses are in bloom at the moment but at least it's colour! lol
Love the pictures of Gage on his tractor:-) xoxo
