My first time doing Bountiful Baskets- I like it! A great way to get more veggies into our diet. A great way to get out of a meal rut also..
Quinn is big enough to ride in the bike trailer. Now for the wind to go away and we can go on some rides all together.
My friend Val was in my neighborhood for her husband's work and it was so fun catching up! Not too many people get out my way but we love it when they do. If I'd taken pics, I'd have got one of Mack and Val's beautiful girl Annie. Mack kept telling me, "Mom, don'tcha think Annie's just way cute?"
Dax has been working super hard in all of his many roles. I am so happy about the things he has been accomplishing. We've also been cooking it up the past few days(using our fresh stuff from our Bountiful Baskets)..no pics of the gourmet bacon swiss avacado turkey burgers or the Cafe Rio pork salads or the homemade pasta sauce that was so delish that I called neighbors to come eat with us.
And my brain has been flooded with project ideas. I love every second of it and have enjoyed improving my sewing skills in trying new things. Here are a couple of my April projects..
my first jean bag- fun and easy. Preslie loves it! I knew there was a reason I was saving all those holey jeans..
My 25 cent yard sale skirt. It was many sizes too large so I took it in using a skirt I had as a guide.
My first attempt at making long sleeves into short sleeves. I was pleasantly surprised how well they turned out.
..simple things but things that make me happy!

Man Trist.. you're homemaker of the year! Putting me to shame! We need to book rooms for our Mangus weekend getaway! I am so looking forward to that! We're missing you guys. Glad to see it's warming up out there!
I'm so glad you tried Bountiful Baskets. I love it. It has been an awesome way to add fruits and veggies to our diet as well as force me to try new things, and cook a better variety of meals. I'm so impressed with your sewing/creative skills. I still miss having you close by. Maybe we'll be able to see each other sometime this summer. I'd love that.
