Are they handsome or what!?!

When the weather outside is frightful...

And the fire is so delightful...

This is what the weather was like earlier when I went and picked up my husbands check. The temp. was 31* with a windchill of 23*. They are calling for freezing rain and cold temps tomorrow as well. Even though I love the spring... I am really enjoying this cold wintry weather! And we need the rain so bad because it has been so dry around here.

Here is Tyler eating his late night snack of life cereal...I love his hair!!!

Brrr! It's Cold Outside and We're Hungry!

We made plans yesterday to go to lunch with Courtney and Laney...we just didn't know it was going to be 30* and raining outside. But we kept our plans and I picked Courtney and Laney at their house. Laney had a new carseat that is forward facing so we were all excited because she could be just like one of the 'big kids'. By the time we got car seats in and everything we were both soaking wet and freezing cold. The kids were happy to see each other and talked and screamed at each other. Jacob wanted chicken and fries from Chili's so that is where we went. The kids were really well behaved and made a huge mess...but we all had a good time. By the time we got done with lunch the rain had started again and we still had to go to Albertson's for milk (it was 10 for $10). By the time we leave it's raining even harder so we hurry up and get the kids in the car and head home to warm up next to a toasty fire.

Making progress....

Last night my husband decided to tear down the dog house for me. He knew there was going to be a cold front moving in and it would be too cold to do it any other time this week. It is getting there slowly. I am just ready for everything to be done so I can enjoy it.

Right now we have 2 grills until Hubby takes the older one to his work so they can grill up there. And we still have a hole to fill with concrete so we can move the other grill over there. And the bush that you see will be dug up next week (there are 3 more in there). And I think that getting rid of the dog house makes the patio look so much bigger!

I'm in Twitter!

My Wonderful Weekend

I have been MIA for a couple of days because I have been uber busy. I spent most of the weekend working in the backyard and it felt great. The weather was nice and I actually got a lot done....but I still have so much to do. I feel like it's never going to get done! But I know it will and I will be so happy when it does! ANd we have decided to have a yard sale in 2 weeks to help me get the money for my yard furniture...yay! I can't wait!

Here are a few pictures from my weekend...

Here is my little Budda sitting in the backyard while I work.

If you look closely you can see dirt on his mouth...that's right! He was eating it!!!

Here are my strawberry plants that I got in Saturday. I can't wait to see the stawberries that they produce!

These are some of the flowers I got. I am not sure what they are but there is one tulip.

These are the other flowers that I got. I love them!

I am not sure what this flower is but they said it will bloom lots of flowers. And the pot I put it in was only .50 cents at a garage sale!

Here is a pic of all my flowers and my back porch. I still have work to do on it but it is going to be amazing when it's done!

Here is the fence where the trumpet vine was....it's gone for good!

Here are some herbs that I am going to plant in my garden. I have basil, cilantro, jalepeno peppers and bell peppers. I am going to get tomato plants this week.
