Spring Fever

I woke up to a morning that looked a lot like this one (only this photo was taken on a vacation we took to the coast when mom came to visit the country of morning calm, and rightly called that. B-E-A-utiful! Name that movie and u win a prize. I'm still trying to use up all my random photographs that I love)

After a balmy 70 degrees yesterday I was bummed to go back to winter and grudgingly changed my shorts I wanted to bust out for a warm sunny day. I was pleasantly surprised though when the clouds cleared out for another spectacular spring day.

I got into the 'spring' (I heard puniness is silly, but what do I care?) of things and came home after work and planted my flowers I bought last time I thought it was spring, then I had to bring them all inside while things got nasty again for a minute. I picked all of my favorites: geraniums, daisies, and my very favorite, Gardenias! But I'm worried I'll kill those with the help of the ultra dry climate here. I'll try my best to keep them happy, but I don't have much of a gardening gene, so..bless their little hearts for coming home with me. Then I dusted off some sweet lights that my mom passed on to me from Grandmas house, u guys know the ones they have up on the back patio? The cool retro 50ish style flower ones? Ok, I don't know what I'm talking about, but I'll take some pictures and let u be the judge of how cool they are!

I took advantage of the fantastic weather to take Ben's Camaro for a spin around the neighborhood a few times too! Nothing like a fast car and my own built in race track. ie our ultra quiet block. JK, I write this to scare my dad, and maybe Ben, but I don't think he's into blogs.



Tomorrow the boss n I are heading to Vegas on a mission to find the worlds largest magnifying glass. To be found at none other than Pottery Barn Kids, who else would have one right? It's a self assignment really, Jana is already on to decorating her next house and this monster is on sale. We have a couple other rooms we are working on that warrant a trip to the 'big city'. Plus I have some Christmas gift cards to burn so I'm syked!
