How Does Your Garden Grow?

It looks like this summer is going to be a busy one... and its not even summer yet! Braydens baseball has been keeping me pretty busy, along with the pretty big influx of sales and custom orders I've been receiving from my etsy shops (which is an awesome thing!) and just trying to balance family life into all of that. Something had to give, and unfortunatly as of late its been updating my blog in a timely manor.

Sunday was an amazing and super fun day! My mother in law took the kiddos for a bit and for a few hours I wasnt chasing around a 17 month old or playing Hot Wheels with a 5 year old. Hey moms need a brake too!!! So rather than waste the time Mike and I decided to spend the day at a few of our local nurseries picking out flowers for our yard (veggies are next week!) It was chilly out, but just doing something with a springy/summer feel to it makes you warm... its funny how that works. So 2 flats and a huge box of flowers (of mostly Dahlias and Begonias- I love Dahlias and Begonias!) later our break was over, and it was fabulous!

Oh and in other good news, we talked to our travel agent who contacted Disney, and apparently a LOT of people are having the same problem with their stimulus money as we are, expecting direct deposit but having to wait for a paper check. They, ever so awesomely, agreed to push our payment schedule back a month... so, provided we get the check on time, the trips still on! Disney here we come!!! ... oh that drive from PA to FL should be ..... fun. But I cant wait!

And of course it would be rude of my to not leave you with a peek at my newest journal and necklace :-)

Yay for the new garden goodies, and an even bigger yay for the good news about your vacation!! You're gonna have so much fun!

Three words for the road trip: Portable. DVD. Player. Or maybe that's two words and an abbreviation - ah well...
