Let it rain, or maybe snow...

Our forsythia bushes after a long downpour on Wednesday!


It's been a week of crazy weather here. The week started nice, but on Tuesday it really stormed. We had a lot of flooding around us. Wednesday brought more rain, with occasional moments of sun. Thursday brought much colder weather and occasional snowflurries. I don't know what will happen on Friday, but it won't matter, because I'll be on my way to Canton, Michigan to spend a day at the Ikea store there. I'm going with my 2 daughters, to spend some fun time together! I even get to meet a blogging buddy for lunch, and if it works I may be abke to meet another one also.
It's been a long time since Laura, Heather and I have been able to spend a day together, just having fun, and we are really looking forward to it. I'll take some pictures and report back to you next week!

That's right!! You're gonna be having fun all day while I am working my fingers to the bone, cleaning our weeds!! Can I come with?

My sister, in Colorado, said they got a lot of heavy, wet, snow in the mountains just outside their property. Spring is fickle.

Enjoy your time with your girls. Be sure to take lots of pictures so we can enjoy them when you get back. (Who am I kidding that I have to tell you to take pictures, right?)ha ha

Loved reading about your IKEA adventures....I've never loved that store. Maybe I need to try it again. I find they have a little bit of everything but not a lot of choices for any one thing. Does that make sense? Anyway, LOVE this picture. Great shot!

Love that forsythia bushes pic! So refreshing. I'm experiencing a downpour here at the moment and am loving the sound of rain!
