Tulips

Spring means flowers. On Sunday we visited the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm for the Tulip Festival. Acres and acres of beautiful flowers, food, music, and tons of people. It was a beautiful day to do something fun.

Fairy Garden

A friend gave me this little fairy door for my birthday. She has one propped up against a tree in her yard and thought I could do the same. I decided to do something different instead. Today I reconfigured the tableau and planned a few new plants. I just can't decide if I should paint or embellish the house in some way.

Blazer Game

Spent last evening watching the Blazers beat the Celtics while chaperoning some really great kids who earned a reward for awesome grades. We had a great time, and the win was icing on the cake!

Spring Break...

in Oregon means anything goes weather wise, even as we pray for sun. This year we had rain, wind, hail and finally some sunshine. As for the last several years, we spent the week at the Dunes.

Brotherly Love

The kittens are growing fast. They have a new windwo perch (had to save the window treatments) and they spend a great deal of time hanging out watching the bird and squirrels feed.

Crocus

Spring is in the air. Monday was absolutely beautiful. I had the day off and opened up the windows and back door to let some fresh air in. Today, when I arrived home from work I noticed that the crocus are starting to pop in the yard. I'm ready for spring.

Kittens

Losing Kit in November was really hard. I miss him, and probably always will. And the house was just too quiet. Thanks to the generosity of a friend, I now have plenty of noise and chaos. Charlie and Greyson arrived this weekend. They are brothers and about seven months old.

The boys are settling in and I'm remembering what it's like to have kittns again after all these years.
