So, I guess you can so that I’ve been inspired to start this blog. Thanks Abby & Melissa!
Anyway, this morning we went to Chick-Fil-A to meet a couple of peeps to eat lunch and play in the little play structure. Cade kept saying “Momma go down slide.” Seeing that the the steps you have to go up to go down the slide are encased in an itty bitty little tube, momma was not going to go down the slide. Eventually, he went down by himself and when it was time to go (of course) he was saying “one more time” with his little finger up in the air.
In other news, the flower garden is coming along well. I planted some pink canna lillies, butterfly bushes, red hot pokers, and a few others. I want to add coneflowers, dahlias, and more sunflowers. I can’t believe how much I enjoy planting and gardening. It is especially rewarding since all of my recent plantings have actually lived. I hated everything about the garden when I was growing up. I remember staring out the sliding glass door at my mom’s house praying that th hurricane that was coming would wash away all the beans so I wouldn’t have to pick them! The next morning those damn beans were still there.
We are having a contractor build a pergola over the back porch if he ever can come up with a price and if it is within our range and I am working on Chris to submit to letting me paint the house. He HATES painting, but I wouldn’t mind doing it. That’s about all that’s going on here on the homefront.
I’m going to try to add to this regularly so check back soon!
