happy mums day

to all the mums in out there, hope you're having a wonderful day!

i was treated to breakfast (nothing tastes better than breakfast made by someone else!)
and this amazing hanging basket.
hope i can keep it alive until the next full moon, when its safe to hang outside full-time.

we've been busy today with some spring cleaning chores. i cleaned out the rock garden, dug out a fire pit and jeff and jade finished a laborious deck job started last fall. now we're are enjoying the sunshine and breeze on this spring day in alaska.
i found this little nest in the clean-up.
the flowers are bloomin' on the window sills. i planted these way back on superbowl sunday. they made it through and are oh so happy now.did i mention the leaves are about to bust?? looky here:cheers!
