6 weeks of photos

Our new compost container

One of my students went to Hawaii for two weeks for Spring Break and brought me a lei

I wore it to work for a day

Then put it out in the yard. You're supposed to return leis to the Earth after wearing, apparently

Kia has always enjoyed sitting in a basket of clean laundry
Probably why all my clothes are covered in cat hair :)

Housewarming gift from my parents: a cool windchime.....

......and a giant mushroom :)

Kitty and a car. We saw them while on a walk through the neighborhood.

Photo frame we saw at Goodwill. You may notice that the groom's head is missing. Rob thought it was pretty funny :)
Lisa's latest flower arrangement.

Spring Break Adventures

At the beginning of Spring Break, Lisa's parents visited, but we didn't take any pictures :(

We made a patio under the grape arbor with some pavers that were in the front yard

Where the pavers used to be, we put some bricks we got on Craigslist

And made a new planting area....for tomatoes

We spent time in our yard

We removed the dead tree from the planter on the front porch

And replaced it with a pretty palm

We cleaned up some yard waste

We drank pina coladas from our pineapple cups

And we ate homemade pizza and calzone.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Another weekend in the Garden

Salsa

Another Beautiful Weekend

Weekend Adventures

We saw this on our walk today.
Apocalyptic couch.

Yesterday Lisa climbed back up on the grape arbor to finish cleaning up the grape vines.

Then she made a funky arrangement from the different trees in our yard.

Other Projects

Rob just started another blog here. It's all about his amazing finds on Craigslist.

And of course, Lisa is still working on her craft blog, here.
