from scratch

Dinner.

I needed to add to my dinner selections so I decided to make chicken noodle soup from scratch. On a cold and rainy day what is better than a hot, fresh, homecooked bowl of chicken noodle soup? I have it cooking in the crockpot and it smells amazing!

projects galore

Neil painted all these cabinets a dark cherrywood color.

yellow is my accent color.

Neil's dad helped us put up the gorgeous new lights.

My husband sure has been busy around the house. He has done so much to make it warm, inviting and beautiful. I owe him a lot! Recently he painted all the cabinets in the house. It makes the house look more sophisticated. He now obsesses over doing house projects here and there. DIY has become his new favorite channel. Thanks honey for being a wonderful husband and making our first home adorable.

a field of tulips

Tulips are my favorite flower.

Yesterday Neil and I went to Home Depot to buy flowers and plants for the yard. I saw these tulips and had to buy them. They add a nice touch to the outdoor decor. Our yard is almost complete; I just want to add a few more flowers here and there.

sour patch kid

Minnie is our little sour patch kid; at first she's sour then she's sweet.

Wanted: A friend for Minnie.

Yes, Neil and I have two dogs, Minnie & Bear.
Minnie is our 8 month miniature Sheltie and Bear is our 14 year old Pomeranian.
Present a problem; I think so.
Minnie needs a small, playful friend her age.
Next weekend I am going to take my little one to play with friends her own age.
She needs it.
I love my little sweetheart.

need a partner

My wonderful husband purchased me a cruiser bicycle for Valentines Day, now I just need a bike partner until he gets one!

Today was a beautiful day, 74 degrees, so I went on a nice little 4.5 mile bike ride.
