Life from where we are

 We are in middle of a deluge of rain so these were out of my upstairs window  The magnolias  are finally in bloom  I played with a couple them in photo shop  This is my fav! Love

I went in search of some signs of spring I found these on my memory card that I had forgotten about He was scavenging leftovers from the bird feeder Yes the forsythia is starting to bloom Considering it is May 1st this week it's about time! Love

We took Molly to the Shenantaha bike path yesterday. It poured last night so we have to stick to the paved trails for now.  It was cloudy, windy & not very warm,  There is nothing really pretty to take picture of. There is very little green to be seen Spring is very late this year & we can't wait! Love

 I realized this morning that I never posted the pics of my finished window treatment in the living room  Of course now I'm back to work it took a while to finish them....they are lined & I kept sewing the wrong pieces together!  Duh!  In my defense I was constantly stopping & starting so could never remember what I was doing.  I bought this material years ago because it matched the wallpaper & of course I loved it.  I actually bought the whole bolt of it so I still have more to play with.  So basically they were free except I'm not telling anyone how much I spent on the trim or how many hours & web sites searching for it! Love

Check out the butterfly earrings from the easter bunny Jessie & Tyler & one with Meghan Love

 The crazy easter bunny, while supposedly getting ready for dinner, had this idea just pop into her head about hiding LiLi's easter basket!  She decided ti would be kinda fun  hide it in a tree.  Not just in a tree but, high up in a tree.  She enlisted the help of her "very skeptical & unwilling partner"!  It took no less than 150 throws to get the rope over the tree branch which included some very close calls of being hit the head with the wrench which the weapon of choice tied to the end of it.  The easter bunny also left a note with clues as to where it was hidden along with a dozen or eggs.  LiLi asked Uncle Scott for help with the clues & finally spotted it!  Finally!
