Slow Spring

Its snowing! Thankfully the storm that was predicted is side skirting us. Living by Lake Superior can have its advantages. We went hiking this afternoon and I have to admit that the snow made everything so pretty even though I am so ready to see leaves on the trees. I’d even settle for some pussy willows. Actually we’ll be excited to see them, hopefully soon.

Big news for my eldest daughter, and for me. She’s now the proud owner of her first car! For the first time in 6 years I am not sharing my wheels and there are no teenagers on my insurance! Last Friday Erik found a 2000 Black Cavalier in great condition for her. I have more pictures of her with her mechanic and her car and I’ll share those later. These ones are of the first time she saw it and Erik making sure that everything on it is as it should be. What a great guy!

Last weekend we made a quick trip to a greenhouse, I was looking for African Violets which they didn’t’ have. After 9 years I’ve decided its time to add houseplants to my home again. All of the Easter plants were on sale too so we had a little splurge…..if spring won’t come outside I’ll have it inside.
