How was your week? Did you do anything fun and exciting? Eben is out of school for Spring Break, so we will be spending a lot of time having fun in the sun. This afternoon Eben and I are going to spend the day together. First, we are going on a bike ride to the park, followed by a picnic lunch and kite flying. This evening we are off to the theater to see ‘Beauty and the Beast.’ {Eben is super excited for this one}. Saturday and Sunday we are going to do a little spring cleaning inside and outside. We want to get our garage organized and ready for our new pop up camper. Yay! We finally decided on one and it will be ready for pickup in about a week. I am so excited to start camping. We are also going to start building our large raised garden beds for our backyard. Isn’t spring so much fun?
What are your weekend plans?
Is it warm enough where you live to get out for a bike ride or a day at the park?
If you plan a bike ride, you can map your route here.
Have you started getting ready to plant your garden?
Have you had a chance to enter to win a fantastic art gift basket from Stubby Pencil Studio or a lovely pair of vintage earrings from Black Star?
Plus, here are a few things from Sweet Greens this week::
* Wouldn’t you love to spend the day soaking here?
* Wouldn’t this make your kitty’s day?
* Who doesn’t love turquoise?
I was super excited yesterday to receive a package from The Andean Collection. Inside was a fabulous 3 in 1 Acai necklace in turquoise and I absolutely love the color turquoise. {It is one of my favorite colors}. How fantastic is that? I have several pieces of jewelry from The Andean Collection, but this may be my favorite. Don’t you think it will be perfect for spring, teamed with a simple white tee. Love.
