April 20-21
I do love a good weekend… and this one has been a combination of busy and quiet. We really had no plans for Saturday and with a thick layer of snow still in evidence we could only go to the Home Depot and LOOK at our tree choices. With Earth day on the 22nd, and snow still here our plant a tree for the day is really not possible… yet! But we are going to spend much of next week discussing Earth day and what WE can do to help the Earth. And then, once the snow melts, Nana and Baba will have a tree added to their landscaping.
Emanuel took some time out and made us a Triceratops out of Play Doh… he is such a dinosaur pro now!
Sorry, Ken took the picture
It was crafting completions for yours truly. I completed TWO projects… a bag by CrochetSpot for an upcoming birthday.

And a hat for Miss Lily… pattern from Stitch11.
Lily’s lovely hat
There was also straw to be stacked in anticipation of warmer and dryer times! (apparently there will be planters)
Ready for planters
Sunday was special for Ken and myself… we had a DATE date. An afternoon (and a bit of the morning) without the kids, with some bonus money and a list of wishes… at the top of the list… a new bathing suit, my first in years and my first one piece in even longer! Bettie Page Clothing for the win!!!
Retro!
I actually managed to do quite well, with money left to think about!
Such a selection
Ken took a picture for me during our lunch from Pita Pit… hair down and everything.
Lunch for 2
I did unearth a dress that Nana and Baba brought Echo back from the Dominican last year… so of course we had to take photos.
Little Sweety
Pretty in Pink
So even with the snow we managed a rather enjoyable weekend! I promise better swimsuit pictures very soon!
Feathers and all!
