Sunday, May 11. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! I went to Smyrna and hung out with my mom and sis all day. We went shopping and had a blast, minus the freezing temperatures and crazy wind. This is my mommy and her two "dog"ters. Are they cute? I love, love, love them!
Monday, May 12. I took the day off cause I had to go get the tooth checked and get some shots so I can go to the Victory Junction Gang Camp this summer. I spent the night with Mom so I could just drive to Nashville from there. So here we are, that morning before she went to work and I enjoyed the most gorgeous day off ever.
Monday cont. Since I was off and it was gorgeous, I bought some flowers for the barrells we have around the house. Super exciting. They look good too!
Tuesday, May 13. I bought a hydrangea from Lowe's on Monday when I was off and my dad and I planted it in the back yard. This is what it looks like now, but come July it's gonna be gorgeous. They even told me that I can change the colors from blue to pink by adding something into the ground. We had to put a wire net around JUST IN CASE the dogs decide to become moles and dig my new plant up. But they would "never" do anything like that, would they?
Wednesday, May 14. These two pics above are some of my beautiful flowers that I planted. The top is my favorite barrel cause I got some Gerber Daisies and Marigolds. They are super bright, even at night time. The pic above is a tiger lily, aka day lily, that I just had to have. It had one bloom on it when I got it and now there are 5! I think it is so interesting that these stamens just dangle. They reminding me of those dolls whose heads bob when you move them. Super cool.-
Thursday, May 15. So today when I was walking around the yard, playing with the dogs, I found this. Pop quiz: Do you know what it is? It's the bud off of a tulip poplar, our state tree. I thought it was really neat and took some pictures of it. Now that I've found that one I have also found hundreds of them laying around everywhere else. They are to the tulip poplar what an acorn is to a mighty oak. Interesting huh? It's the teacher in me.
Friday, May 16. I wanted a nice quiet, do whatever I want to for free weekend, so tonight started it. I painted my nail fire engine red, just for the heck of it. My dad always feeds the dogs yogurt. Well, he lets them like the containers when he finishes. This is Sophie with her yogurt gotee that she got from attempting to lick the container clean. She's so cute. She obviously doesn't always like her picture made, but I love her so she did it anyways.
Saturday, May 17. I did a whole lotta nothing and I loved it. My dad went and got groceries this morning and when he got home I was cleaning the kitchen cause I was in the mood and if the mood strikes I better get to it. Well, he asked if I wanted to go to Granny's and finish putting mulch out in her flower beds so that was what we did. My dad had a date Saturday night too. Ooooohhhh...I know. I felt like such the loser sitting at home watching Bridget Jones' Diary feeling that I am so much like her it's not even funny. But I had a blast. It was nice to just lay around and do nothing, even though I would love to go on a date, but that's ok. One day, maybe, hopefully.....
