We have had a great week! My Grandma (mom's mom) and my Aunt Jane (mom's oldest sister) came on Monday night to be with us for a few days. It was wonderful because Grandma just turned 88 this past week and I didn't get to the family birthday party, so we took her out to lunch. We always have such a great time together and the girls just LOVE to have them too. :) So this morning before they had to take off for Ohio I snapped a quick pic at the breakfast table.

Bless the Lord, Happy Easter Everyone!

Sigh, it felt like home...

I found this store in Fairview, a small town just a few minute away. I can't believe that I haven't made it there sooner, Troyer's Country Store!

I walked in and thought I had landed back in Lancaster! LOL! Imagine my surprise when I learned after several moments of talking with the owner that he is friends with my Dad and knew my Mom. He was at her funeral. I have to say that it felt really good to find those connections. You take them for granted when you don't live somewhere like Lancaster. I admit, in PA it could feel stifling, but to find it again was like a warm blanket. The girls were very excited to find someone who knew Grandma! They were totally into the connection and it was special to share it with them. :)

SO, if you are in the area you MUST check them out! Absolutely amazing! Their wet bottom shoe fly muffins were to die for, and their Chocolate cheddar cheese! OH MY!!! Make sure to check out their organic chicken too!

Don't you just love...

Don't you just love this old movie!? :) Chloe loves it as much as I did back when I was young. I remember watching it with my parents and finding the whole thing so romantic, watching that boy ride over the cliff as the others stood around and watched! I love that my girl is growing up and loves to hang out! :) Wait till she sees Return to Snowy River! :D

My little plants growing!

I am so excited for spring! :) Here is the sad and funny part...I forgot to label 4 of the five planters...so like myself I had to laugh! I think I am slowly figuring out what is what...but if I have broccoli in my herb garden, and herbs where my tomatoes are to go, I'll not be surprised! LOL! I already have my garlic, collard greens, butter head lettuce, and swiss chard in the ground outside. I am hoping to get my peas in today. I know, I am late on those but I only have so many days of nice weather to prepare the soil.

Have a great day everyone!

Wow, how quickly the time flies! I've been very remiss in keeping you all posted. I'm going to try and catch up! But to get started, I wanted to share a picture of Maggie's new glasses... :) They make me smile... :)
