And the winner is.....
Not me! Checked out the robin nest tonight to find 3 little fuzz balls with wide open beaks. Hungry little fellas! Hopefully I'll get some pics tomorrow. The light was too far gone and mama bird was not happy with us being there!

The Race is On!
Just a couple of spring treats I've found in my back yard this last week. I'm again amazed how fast the flowers (in this case the lilacs) don't seem to last. I guess you have to enjoy them why they are out! They were looking a little brown today:(
I was weed wacking the other day on the side of the house and a robin just started going nuts! She was flying all around and chirping like crazy. I looked up in the pear tree and saw the cause of her dismay....the nest. Apparently she didn't like my company! So instead of being good and leaving her be, what did I do??? Brought out a stool and had a little peak. I couldn't quite get the camera high enough from my little stool to get a full on shot of her three pretty blue eggs. I got a couple of them in the picture though!
I've been checking on it all week to see if there are little babies yet but not so. Apparently some babies like to take their time:) Which brings us to the fact that it's D Day and still no baby for us either. I guess if I were miserable it would be a big deal but since everything has been pretty great..I'm fine with this little guy taking his time to greet the world. It is a little hard to make plans though...sorry Mom!
So the race is on....which baby/babies will arrive first folks? Stay tuned...!

Twilight with cheeseburgers!
Some people have a lot of times on their hands...other people get to laugh at the products from those people!

Seriously...GOOD!
This might sound like an odd combination but it is seriously so good. I was introduced to it last spring. No worries it's not like a pickles and peanut butter thing (which sounds disgusting by the way).
Strawberries....dipped in sour cream.....dipped in brown sugar.
If you havent tried it, do it. You wont be sorry...unless of course you don't like strawberries. And if that's the case, maybe you'll change your mind:)
Just a word of advice....go with regular sour cream. I've tried light....not as good! Enjoy and let me know what you think!

You can call me Flower....if you want to!!
Love love love spring! Well the weather can be unpredictable but oh well. Anyways I have the coolest tulips. I've not much of a green thumb but these pretties just come up every year and I don't have to do anything. I don't even weed (as you can see!!)
First shot of the day...when the sun hits the front flower bed

About an hour later when they open up to enjoy that short lived sun (we have a north facing house)


Glad I got to enjoy these for a few days because they are SOOO short lived. They only last about a week and are pretty much dead and gone now:( Ahh well....maybe I can find something else fun to plant in there....then again my non green thumbs say maybe not. Guess we'll wait and see:)

Some song meets some other song
I really like how Jon Schmidt blends songs together.
This is a favorite
