Lovely End...

It turned out to be a very nice Sunday.  After a couple of cups of coffee, I put on my overalls, that I've had since I was a Freshman in high school, and went out to our vegetable/fruit garden in the backyard to get it weeded and prepped for seeds.  Thanks to the monster storm the night before, it didn't take very long at all.  While I walked around and shot pictures of all the flowers in our yard, Vince and Bella planted some Snowbells, or Sugar Snap Peas.  Bella has been put in charge of these and couldn't be more excited about it.  (She checked on them before school this morning.).

After a little clean up and some list making, I headed out to Home Depot for mulch, and Hancock's for stabilizer, while Vince and Bella went to the grocery store.  A little backwards, but that's how we roll in our family :)  We all returned home around the same time, and while I did some more weeding and mulching, Vince played basketball with Mark Jenkins in the driveway.  Bella went from the front to the back doing her own thing as well, I was just happy she was outside soaking up the sunshine.  When the guys were done playing basketball, we all pitched in and gave the dogs a much needed bath.  Always a good time!

Next, it was time for the humans to clean up and meet V's parents for a yummy salmon/grilled corn/pasta salad dinner with homemade chocolate pie for dessert.  I also did a mini photo shoot with Bella in Jamma's beautiful flower gardens while there too.  It really is a beautiful time a year!

Now it's Monday... I'm going to finish a t-skirt I started on Friday first, and then I'm going to prep pattern pieces for a dress I'm going to make for myself out of the beautiful silk my Mom brought me from China.  It's black with red cherry blossoms scattered about.  It will be my first time to sew silk, but I'm up for the challenge!  One more cup of coffee I think before I get started <3
