What a beautiful SPRING day!!

The twins and I were outside from 9:45 when we did my 4 miles until about an hour ago. It was so pretty here today. I can not wait until it's like this all the time!! We did alot today while we were outside enjoying this nice weather. First of all this is our new friend that joined the flower bed.... Its the Cowboys gnome. Isn't he cute? I think so!
This is my new little sun stake. I like anything to do with suns. I think it fits right in.

This is the other palm tree that we got from Uncle Jim and Aunt Nelda. We planted it in the back yard in front of this UGLY cable box hoping that one day it will kind of hide it. Thanks Jim and Nelda.


While the twins enjoyed their side walk chalk....this is Karson's work of art..



This is Karlea's work of art....

I filled up all of my little pail flower hangers and hung them on the fence in the back yard. I think they turned out great! I love them!! This is the left side as you walk out into the back yard.


This is the right side as you walk out into the back yard.

This is the back fence.

This is kind of an overall look of the back yard. I think it looks so good!!


Another view of the back yard.


This was my new flower project I did this evening on the back porch.

I think I like my flip flop thermometer the MOST!! How cute is it?? BUT after I thought I put it in the most perfect cutest place.....I read you are supposed to put thermometers in the shade NOT direct sun light and now I already have a SCREW hole on the front of the kids swing set.....so not sure how I'm going to fix that but other than that small minor problem I think it's super cute!!

Wednesday!

So the weather went from 81 on Tuesday to cold rain and a high of like 38-40 Wednesday. ARE YOU SERIOUS, that's just ridiculous! We were stuck in the house all day but that was ok because I had alot to do seeing that we are going out of town for 4 days on Friday. The big boys and the guys are going camping at a place near Coleman Texas where they live that is just unbelievable. http://www.warrenranch.net/ You have to check it out! Thanks so much to Charles and Kayla for letting them be able to bring the boys, they are all so excited!! I think the BIG boys (Ben and Josh) are even more excited than the little boys! Shel and I are taking the twinkies and Jameson to my Aunt Terry Sue's in San Angelo Texas for a short little vacation. The twins love her house, they live out in the country and have alot of land. They have a basketball court the twins just love to run around on and play with the balls, they pretty much would stay outside from the time they get there until we leave. Not sure how that's going to work this time because daddy will not be with us and he is always the one that takes them out there and watches them....I mean I can't miss an important card game and it's the only time we play cards!! Anyways here are 2 pics of the kids on Wednesday. Klayton crawled up behind them at the last minute.
leaving for dinner! I thought Karlea looked like she was athletic in this little wind suit and her hair in a high pony tail (reminded me of me when I was younger)! "LOOKED" athletic is about as far as the athletic things goes right now, but she has several years to kick it in gear!!

SPRING FEVER!!

The babies and I got up this morning at 6 to get Klayton ready for school and we have been on the go ever since! After Klayton left for school, the twins and I ran to walmart, then we had lunch at Chili's, as soon we got home we did our 3 miles, and when we got back we started on the yard work and have been out side ALL day until we had to go get Ben from work. I just wanted to tidy up my flower beds. I thought everything turned out really good and I can't wait until it's spring here for good! It was mid 80's today and so nice!! Here is a picture of what the twins and I did all day. Ready to start the day.....so clean....you should have seen them when we were done with everything.....wet, dirty, and smelly!! But they had a great time!!
