The weekend.

We were supposed to paint our house this weekend but that didn't end up happening due to the weather forecast. There was a 60% chance of rain and so we decided not to do it. Well wonderful mother nature did not drop 1 stinking drop Saturday. So much for accurate predicting. It was still a good thing we didn't do it though because of the humidity plus there was some rain today. We are going to try and do it this week and this weekend so we'll see how far we get. Hopefully we aren't spending out 3 days weekend plus Sean's birthday painting! Any volunteers out there?!?!

So instead I planted flowers. I should make mention that I don't have a green thumb AT ALL. I've killed my flowers, every year for the past 3 years. But I've decided that this is the year. This year I will water my flower and keep them pretty! :) I planted a lot of Gerber's because they are my absolute favorite flower (my wedding bouquet was all Gerber daisy's too!). I just love them! I still have the front flower bed to plant and I'm thinking of doing window boxes in the front as well but I'm waiting to do both until we are done painting.

And this picture is to show proof that I do outside work. Honestly, not a big fan of it. I don't like to sweat and don't find joy in doing outside work. But I did it without complaining and I *glowed* and got covered in dirt. :)



And this...dog. She used to be our baby. Everyone told me that she wouldn't be our baby anymore whenever Lyla got here. I argued left and right and told everyone that I wouldn't let that happen because I loved her. Um...yeah. Every person that told me that was correct. She's be demoted. And every time she does something to make more work for us or does something she shouldn't, she gets demoted even more. The only plus is that Lyla absolutely adores her. She is definitely Lyla's best friend. She's recently decided to start digging holes along the fence line and is royally pissing Sean off. Royally. We still love her, though. (Sometimes).
And we also got Lyla a little kid Adirondack chair! We got 1 in turquoise and 1 in a green color! They are sooo adorable!! She's looks like a little mess in these pictures. And notice the picture where she only has 1 sock on? Yup, she tried eating the other!

So all in all, a good weekend. It was kinda strange not taking pictures but it was a nice break to catch up around the house! I also rearranged Lyla's room and cleaned up my craft room. both of those were outta control! Once they are how I like I'll post pics (if I remember).

Have a great week!!!
