Spring

Tea Party with Tad
Tea Party with Tad

I love spring. Though I could never pick a favorite season. Because Fall is spectacular as well. Spring is like a breath of fresh air. After being cold for a several months, spending entirely too much time within the confines of my home and doing what feels like double the amount of laundry due to all those extra layers, I begin to crave green sprouts shooting up from the ground and green tips on the trees. Warm sunshine on my face an abundance of outdoor playtime. I also seem to be having a rush of creativity...and an urge to buy a lot fabric! Oh, so many gorgeous fabrics out there. I just can't sew fast enough to use what I already have!

Last week we made an unexpected visit back to our hometown in GA. My FIL was taken by ambulance to the hospital due to sharp chest pain and passing out. After a couple nights in the hospital and an army load of tests, they think he has Hypoglycemia. It's not certain yet, but a heart cath and scans ruled out heart blockages and a pulmonary embolism. I was scared for him. Kris and I started dating at the ripe old age of 15 so I've been in their family for about 16 yrs now. After loosing my dad 9 yrs ago, Mr. Dennis is that much more special to me. I am so thankful that it doesn't look to be anything too serious. A pic from a few months back of Mr Dennis and Lilianne playing with balloon animals.

Speaking of dad's, yesterday would have been my dad's 60th birthday. I miss him so much. Happy Birthday Daddy!
