the weekend
weekends are usually family time
like most days actually minus school for Lily or work for Will
it is usually just the three of us
this weekend however, unexpectedly, it was mostly just Will and i
Lily went to a playdate on saturday morning which extended itself into a sleepover
it was the most beautiful day on saturday (all weekend actually)
Will and i went on a sexy date to home depot where we bought a few more flowers and seeds, went to lunch here, and then grabbed a bottle of wine, came home, turned the music on, opened windows and doors and worked on the front porch as well as on the backyard a bit
it was a nice change just being him and i
something we have said we need to work on more this year but it happened just by chance
when we picked Lily up sunday morning, she was exhausted so we pretty much did a repeat of saturday
lots of hanging in the new front porch hammock and in the backyard
all around a wonderful weekend. weather wise too. perfect
happy monday friends
hope you all had a great weekend and enjoy today off if you have it
ps- there are a lot (LOT) of pictures today. Will gave me a new lens for christmas and i finally got around to playing with it this weekend. it was the perfect weekend for it. can you see a difference in the pictures?
we got crafty and made an orchid hanging
texting her friends. for real though
we also grabbed this little table from a home sale. perfect for outside eating
i’m trying this succulent thing again. i think i am the only person who is not good with them
art sessions
meanwhile in the backyard, a new bleeding heart
i can now zoom in real close on these things with my new lens
a new water hyacinth
these guys are a constant chase to Foxy
scuba girl. minus the water
keeping himself warm
a princess bride
the sweetest princess bride
new orange/lime blossom
in case you didn’t all know yet, she has a thing for the drama

Great pictures! Love the boots on the princess bride…Lily has the most beautiful eyes. most of the girls in our family didn’t get the long eyelashes and pretty eyes..the boys got them. Have a wonderful week.
