How time flies!!

Gosh...didn't realize it has been so long since I updated my blog! But of course, my daughter Deb reminded me I was far behind!

Last time I wrote we were working on our kitchen...that is all done now and so nice. Love the countertops! They are darker that the previous and make the wood look so much richer. Now need a new fridge! Ours is that almond color and just YUCK! So...maybe that should be on my Valentine list!! LOL I told my hubby I don't need jewelry (unless of course he just insists!!) and don't need candy..don't need clothes..nor plants so what will I ask for?? Perhaps he can surprise me!! Strange, but one thing I do want is one of those metal birdfeeders...the kind that have the various little things for the birds to sit on and eat. Just took a pic of the one I have along with one bird feasting!! I can't keep it filled...they sure love it!

While outside taking pics I noticed my iris are already in bloom! Of course here in California we have had mild weather so everything is just ready to burst open in bloom. I noticed the almond trees are blooming already..next will be the peaches and then the prunes.

We had a great time last week. The big fundraiser for our son-in-law Brian and daugther Rhonda and girls was held. It was a great success. Then, to make it and extra special time for us, our daughter and her boys came out from Indiana, as well as daughter Deb and family came from Oregon. We not only all were at the fundraiser, but the next day celebrated Deb & Rhonda's birthdays! The visits were short but so nice to have them here!

I did manage to get a couple things made up for my WSOAPP shoppe. Seems early for Easter but guess that is coming before we know it!

One other thing...sort of have a bad feeling about the strange cats showing up in our yard. Seems the female Siamese that belongs to the neighbor but lives at our house most of the time is having some regular visitors...hmmmmmm!! Now you know what I am thinking! I always said I didn't want any animals...took this one under my wing and loved and fed it and now will probably have alot more to take care of!!! Hope not!! Plus...the "visitors" are not even pretty! Figures!! Will keep you all posted.....till next time!
