Spring, glorious Spring! It’s finally here and I have spent the last few days outside. I even got all the patio furniture out and had coffee on the deck this morning…it was 75 degrees at 7:30 a.m. Unheard of around here. I can’t remember ever getting to sit on the deck this early in the year. Woo hoo! I love it. I love the blue skies…

and the flowers. Ahhhhh!
Even the moss looks lush after all the winter drab…

E wanted to know why I was on my knees taking a picture at the base of the tree. I said, “E, look at all this GREEN!”
The dogs are loving the sunshine.


Now, if I could just get Ridley to stop barking at the new neighbor’s dog and cat. He spends hours just sitting and waiting for a peek at them.
The fresh air makes everyone tired.

It’s been a while (hasn’t it?) since I partook in a meme so here’s a fun one that I got ages ago from the lovely and talented JavaQueen:
The rules:
You leave a comment on this post requesting a letter and I’ll assign you one. You write about ten things you love that begin with your assigned letter, and post it at your place. When people comment on your list, you give them a letter, and the chain continues on and on.
Here we go, in no specific order:
1. Beer.

2. Bailey – my wonderful, deceased dog.

3. Bacon…’cause come on, who DOESN’T love bacon?

4. Bull’s Eyes. (Not the actual eyes of a bull but those yummy caramel cream confections that I eat by the bagful)

5. Beaches (not the movie, silly…a hot, sandy beach!)
6. Blogging.
7. British accents. Or a man with ANY accent, for that matter.
YUM!
8. Amy Butler fabric (ok, that was a bit of a cheat…but her last name begins with B!).

9. Boys (um, men really, ’cause I’m no cradle robber).
10. Boots (especially my Ugg-like warm, cozy winter boots).
There you have it. If you want to play along just leave a comment and ask for a letter.

E was in her room quietly crafting last night. She excitedly ran down the stairs to model her newest creation:


She said, “Since I don’t have a real Twilight t-shirt I decided to make my own. Do you like it?”
“I love it!”, I replied. The front is a bit gorey…the back, however…so clever!

Well, well, well, look who came to visit this week. It’s Boo…and his lovely girlfriend, Bev. These two lovebugs arrived early this week and let me tell you, I’ve not been able to separate them since they got here. They’ve been very polite and quiet guests, but I guess it’s because they are so ‘into’ each other that they don’t require much attention or entertainment. When they arrived they were clinging to each other for dear life.

Boo explained that Bev was a little frightened because she had never traveled before and she was a bit unsure of what was in store. I assured them that there was nothing to fear here…except maybe the dogs…

Who are always excited to see who’s visiting.
I explained to both of them that they probably shouldn’t draw attention to themselves like they were – by hanging on my chandelier – because the dogs would be even more interested.

I went to work and they decided that they would prefer to stay home and rough it by themselves. When I returned from work at lunch time I couldn’t find them anywhere. The last place I looked…in my bedroom…was where they were! All snuggled in bed together. Hmmmmm.

Just look at Bev all puckered and ready to smooch!

I didn’t think it was a good idea for them to lie in bed all day, especially unsupervised. I wasn’t ready for any monkey business!
They found plenty of things to do for the remainder of the day. They made monkey bars out of my headboard.

And climbed up and down and around on the railings.

Played on the computer.

Until I realized what they were looking at:

Naughty monkeys! I think the lovebirds are ready to head out to their next destination – Trisha’s. After all, how much lovey-dovey-monkey-business can a host expect to take? Sheesh.
