A Few Good Things

Spring is my least favorite season. There are very few things I enjoy about spring. It continues to be cold after a long harsh winter, the emerging leaves and grass produce pollen which wreaks havoc on my sinuses, eyes, head and eyes, it rains and rains and rains and even snows. But, one of the most joyous signs of spring is the blooming of my lilac bush. Purple is my favorite color and the smell of lilacs is one of my favorites. I cut a bunch of lilacs today and have them sitting on my coffee table. I can view and smell them as I type. I also enjoy the return of my beloved hummingbirds. So far, I've seen 2 males and 1 male. I'm also enjoying the Orioles and the once again bright, yellow Goldfinches. Oh, and rhubarb. I love rhubarb. Thanks to a coworker, I secured a sack full. Just this morning, I whipped up some rhubarb crisp and rhubarb bread. I'm anxiously awaiting sunny days with 80 degree temps along with lightening bugs, killer thunderstorms and the proliferation of my geraniums and petunias. Yes, I'm waiting.....

***edited to add: I just had to cover ALL my flowers.frost advisory for tonight. I.HATE.SPRING

More birthday boy







Here are pictures of Jack and his birthday legos. This is the one thing he really wanted. He had to open it as soon as he woke up and put it together before school. That is why he looks half asleep...he is!!!



Birthday boy

Happy 10th birthday to Jack.My baby is 10 years old. Seems just like yesterday that we were chasing trains all over town. He has since moved on to a lego and Star Wars obsession. All boy.He also loves to ride his 4 wheeler and new(really old, but new to him) motorcycle. He also LOVES to eat. He is a bottomless pit. He can outeat his older brother any day of the week. He loves tacos, lasagne and pizza. I'll post pictures later!!!
