Beautiful Sunday!

I am so happy Spring is almost here! The weather has been so beautiful and I am so ready to get outside and get my hands dirty! We have a lot of work to do outside our house this year. We had to reroute our whole sprinkler system last year and the lawn and earth were just ruined. Plus we are putting in a walkway/path so we have a lot to do. Until then, we are having some fun. We went to the Flower Show at Hicks Nursery which is a tradition for our family and it really got us excited for the season coming! I love these egg topiaries. I have instructions on how to make them on my country decorating page on facebook. These are just amazing in person! The blue is like WOW!!!

My favorite was the prim one below:

They had lots of Easter displays and these bunnies were so cute. Lots of furry chicks and Easter planters.

It was just nice walking through the big greenhouse building and enjoying the color of all the flowers.

Caitlin planted a pea plant as one of the activities offered. She did that last year as well and that little pea plant lasted till Fall!

Here she is at one of the prop stations for the kids:

Beautiful combinations of color:

When we finished, we went out for a great lunch and then came home. I was still enjoying the sunny day and so were the chickens. Carol & Frankie enjoyed a nice stroll around the house--supervised of course, due to the threat of a hawk, whom I haven't seen so far this year yet, but I don't take any chances! We are also considering adding to the flock. Most likely silkies as well or another bantam style chicken.  Below is Carol.

Caitlin and I are working on our plans for our Easter Egg Coloring party and she made the most adorable favors. I will show them to you next post as she has them put away right now--she needs to make a few more.

Have a beautiful day!
