spring






lots going on these days. so excited for spring and summer i can hardly stand it. last weekend we repainted our patio chairs (previously white and rusty) and got the backyard ready for some excellent garden parties and grill outs. our garden boxes, my homemade birthday present from mr. paul, are ready to go with the seedlings i've been coddling inside. and our beautiful plum tree is in bloom right outside the kitchen window. perfect.

Such a happy place! Hopefully we'll be able to make it to a grill out this summer.

Lovely! I cannot wait either, but alas, I live in Maine where we are still getting hard frosts and it's only 44 degrees today. These pictures are great!

it is a happy place! we'd love visitors, jess. don't be too jealous of our "warm" weather guys, it was frosty this morning. but, i have hope that it's going to turn the corner soon.
