Mouthless Mondays... well maybe not...

I am at a loss for words this morning... It's been a busy weekend but fun. Just glad for the chance to sit, even if it's just my office chair!

Meri and I had a little bon fire in the firepit last night, but mostly burned newspapers under the wood. *pretty* We had a good time just chit chatting about things. She's growing up...

These are some flowers Maddy planted several years ago. I happened to catch them blooming one day in April 2007. Usually they bloom and die before anyone sees them. I know we didn't catch them this year!

Enjoy!

Bon fire sounds so wonderful and the flowers are beautiful. Have a great Monday!!!!

They look like tulips; if so, they should last a few days, so I'm surprised you missed them. But whatever they are, they are beautiful! I love the color.

Jen said...

Beautiful flowers! Sounds like you made nice memories with Meri during your bon fire :) I wish we could stop them from growing up so fast, but then again, it's so nice to watch them grow.

Good times....Amanda wants us to get a firepit, but not sure we have a place for one.

Thought of you yesterday when I opened the Lifestyle section of our paper. Main headline was: "Make Pillow Cases With Only 3 Seams". Here's a link and I saved the paper if you want me to send it!

What pretty flowers....one of my fav. colors too!

Dan wants a fire pit. I told him he had to get his patio built first so he had someplace to put it.lol

Noah and I bonded this weekend too....of course our bonding occured over his latest obsession...a Rubik's Cube. ;-)

Anytime you can get chat time with your kids is golden. I had some today with my oldest!

I so want a fire pit! What a great way to spend time with your child.

Isn't it awesome when kids reach that age where they are happy to just sit and chat with you. VC and I have been taking walks together. And discussing all sorts of nonsense...

thank you for your kind words about my blankie attempt :D

Tulips, right? My favorite. I carried purple ones as my wedding bouquet (April wedding).

I love tulips!! we also have some near the girls¨' window and it's just amazing to look at them every morning!!

I've always wanted to be able to have a bonfire in the backyard. We just moved into a house and we FINALLY have a yard of our own after several years of condo living. Yay!!
