Savannah's Room!!

My mom and I had the task of getting Savannah's room painted. I wanted to do something original, but terribly cute. This is our end result. I love it! I think it is my favorite next to Austin's room. I added the Squares to the corners for just the right amount of color to blend the wall hangings I already had, and added her name which by the way was not my Idea I have to say thank you to Andie she is so crafty. If you look close enough that is scrapbook paper glued to wooden letters.. Yeah what a great Idea. I got the flower mirror and hanger for I think a buck or two and painted them.. I have a list of things to do this summer and now I can officially mark one off. Thank you to my mom who worked really hard seeings how my back was hurting so much from the accident she is so wonderful I love her so much.. This room completely fits Savannah she is girly and looks her best in purple. Hope you all like it especially James.

Update on garden!!

Ok so this year we planted asparagus and thought it was 2season plant meaning that it will take two years to start seeing them grow well yesterday we were outside and low and behold there are tiny little asparagus growing.. You will have to look very hard for the little sprigs, but aren't they so cute!! Ok and also I have to say I am impressed with the artichokes not only one grows we have like 6 of them right now and I know more will be growing. I took some more pictures some of them you have to look very hard cause they are nestled in the leaves..

WHAM!! BAM!! SLAM!!

Ok so we were on our way home from the store and WHAM!!! This lady hit me from behind I even saw her coming and I tried to speed up to keep from getting hit, but then I realized I had to stop or I would hit the person infront of me.. This lady was not slowing down so I braced myself for impact and prayed my children would be ok.. I am so shaken and sore and upset at the same time the lady admitted that she was not looking in my lane when she looked up and hit us.. She had to have been going atleast 40-45mph on impact. I am also upset cause my poor brand new van not even a year yet is now broken in the rear... My hatch almost didnt open up.. My children are ok and doing good. Needless to say we all got Ibuprofen for aches and pains.. My mother was in the van as well and She is doing good. All in all we are all ok just shaken up.. Here is the damage yulky!!!

On a Golden Spring time!!

Ok when I took these pictures of our Garden I was singing this song for those who do not know the words let me give you a bit "On a Golden Springtime underneath the ground a tiny seedling lay asleep until the sun shone down AWAKE AWAKE oh little seed push upward to the light" I love that song it is one of the first I learned through primary as a teacher... I wanted to share with all of you the wonder of our garden and the green thumb of my hubby. Hopefully I will be able to keep it alive... The artichoke took two seasons to grow so finally we are able to see the little seed turn into something great! (although I have to think is it worth it for 2years for one artichoke no wonder why they are so expensive lol) I do think though it was a pretty plant for the last few years it stayed green all the time... We planted brocolli this year only because it is Katelynn's favorite vegetable and well when you have kids you feed them what they will eat right!! Especially vegetables!!! It is wonderful to see things grow and being able to eat them is even better.. I love having a garden we added thyme and rosemary along with Jalepeno's this year things we eat alot of..
