Spring has Sprung

The weather over the weekend was unusually warm for this time of year. So naturally there is a case of Spring Fever going around at our house. David likes to work in the yard despite his off the chart allergies. (so if you happen to drive by the house and see a masked man in the yard, it's just David he wears a surgical mask to help minimize the affect of the pollen) Poor guy. I can't imagine him not being able to goof around in his yard, he certainly doesn't let his allergies stop him. He had Friday off, Lindsey was out of school for Parent/Teacher conferences, so after our conference with her teacher (which went very well) David and Lindsey headed to Lowes (remember the Spring Fever I mentioned earlier?) for starters this is what came home:

David spent most of the weekend cleaning up the yard and flower beds getting them ready for summer.

Lindsey also got her garden planted. When we moved into this house almost four years ago Lindsey decided she wanted her very own flower garden. There was perfect spot right under her bedroom window so of course Daddy made it happen. She has had a pretty garden every year since then. She picked out some plants for her garden and she and Daddy planted them on Saturday. Nice job! (notice the handmade stepping stones)

Here is a picture of some of our Iris blooms:

I got caught up on some stuff around the house over the weekend. (no "pregnancy naps" for me this weekend) and I am feeling it today. My feet are so swollen I had a hard time finding shoes to wear this morning. Wish I could sport my flips. All in all it was a productive weekend.
