Wildflowers

I took a walk in the back of the property and found some gorgeous wildflowers. I picked a large bunch of them and made bouquets for all over the house.

Baby Update

Baby is growing and quite active now. This is what I looked like about a week ago.

Fruit Trees and Blueberries

We recently had our fruit tree order arrive. That was an exciting day! We also got five blueberry bushes. Andrew's brothers have been a big help to us in getting them all planted.

Maternity Skirts

I have had fun lately making myself some maternity skirts now that most of my other ones don't fit any more. So far I have made three from scratch, the denim and two florals and one from an altered thrift store skirt, that is the khaki one.

Outdoor Dinner

One evening after planting in the garden we had a fun dinner outside. We roasted our turkey franks in the fire and brought out all the condiments. We finished up just in time as it started to rain.
