Pretty Things and Happy Thoughts!

Helloooo dear friends!

I just wanted to say THANKS to all those who left me encouraging and supportive comments on my last post about "Unleashing the Beast". Its heart warming to know that you all care ♥

We've gotten some more spring-like days here in Northern Indiana this week:)
But brrrr... is it COLD in the mornings still!
23 degrees the other morning!

On a nice sunny day, I was able to get outside and put out some Easter decor.
Here are a few pics...

Some cute yard signs in the area where soon some daffodils will be blooming and where I will plant LOTS more pretties in a couple months...


Hehe, love this one!
April 4th, the bunny WILL stop at our home:)
I can't believe Easter is a month away!!


Isn't this chickie flag cute?


Miss Bunny for the front porch...
some reason she won't light up anymore:( 
Even changed the bulb and nothing!


My favorite wooden watering can!
I replaced the ribbon on it with some cute Easter ribbon that Holly sent me last year for the Easter Basket swap that she and I did.
I even added these pretty pink daisy to the bow for more color.


Spring... yeahhhhh!


A shot of the super bright sun shining through my bare maple tree!!

It was so nice that day and warm in the house so I let the boys pick their new favorite shorts and shirts for summer and let them wear 'em around the house...


Mr. Gavin posing in his new plaid shorts and his Diary of a Wimpy Kid t-shirt:)


And... lil Mr. Gage coming down the stairs modeling his FAVE dinosaur shirt and plaid shorts!
They were thrilled to air out in their shorts!!

...............................
At CVS the other day, I saw they had some Valentine stuff left over for 90% off and I snagged this cute little rose wreath for $0.49!!!! Yahooo!


.............................................................

Today is the start of my SPRING BREAK!!
Soooo happy!
Its a lay-low weekend for us around here,
not much going on.
I am waitressing for my hubby tomorrow night at the restaurant he manages, 
time to make some $$!

Next weekend is our trip to Chicago...
CANNOT WAIT to get away!!!
We are hoping for nice weather on Sunday so we can hit up
 one of their zoo's before we head back home!

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THIS WEEKEND?
HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT ONE!!

Love,
Noelle ♥

Aw, I was just thinking about our swap the other day! That was fun!

Your bunny lady is so cute, she doesn't need to light up!

Even though we still have snow on the ground and we have more snow on the way, the angle of the sun is telling me springy things! I can feel my energy percolating and getting READY! ♥

Glad you liked my favourite saying! lol You should have seen the look on Steve's face the first time he ever heard me saying it!! hehe

All of your Easter decorations are so adorable. I haven't taken mine out yet, I usually only put them up a couple of weeks before Easter itself so around mid March.

Enjoy your Spring Break and I don't think I need to ask if you're looking forward to your trip away with hubby! hehe xoxo
