it's 6:30...

well...the peas are in and sprouting!  spring has sprung here in little rock!  OOO-DA-LALLY!!!  today was 80 degrees and gorgeous.  i'll take a mild winter and an early spring even if it means a disgusting summer!  don't care.  this is what i love about little rock.  warmth.  humidity.  shit blooming in february.  it's chicken soup for the southern soul.  good grief, it's time to bust out my tink feeders and buy me some porch plants and dig my canta bulbs out of the coat closet!  (thanks ma)  it's time to stop cleaning the house and start puttin on my gardening gloves.



speaking of cleaning the house...dear pandora, your adele station sucks.  ADELE is not michael buble.  ADELE does not sound like sara bareilles.  ADELLLLLLE is NOT adult contemporary.  where are you getting this (from)?  ADELE is on my ipod 24/7 and none of the other crappy music in your playlist (is). (haha bum)  so from now on when i need you, it will be for glenn miller and frank sinatra and the whacky artists my husband likes...but not for my favorite pop star.  nope.


See this beautiful piece of art??  someday i might give you the recipe.  which one's mine and which one's the book's?...hmmmmmmm...they never look the same...

                                                but it tasted darn good!!


                                                     didn't it boobie???



news flash:

*austin is leaving in 9 days for an iron swap back to the desert.  translation: flying a new plane to the deployed guys in afghanistan and bringing their old plane back for maintenance.  hopefully a short and uneventful trip. hopefully.

*6/30 i'll be in oregon for kelcie's wedding (yay!!).  this is my summer trip this year so i won't be making it home :(  total bummer.  i know.  but this is why God invented skype.  moses. 

*i DO have a beautiful guest room for any one of my loyal readers who'd like to come visit!  Seriously.  COME VISIT!

  2. Hello, my dear girl! I envy you for the warm weather, but I am not quite ready for all the work entailed in gardening!
    We haven't even had a good blizzard for nesting.
    How long will Austin be gone? Wish I could come stay with you!!

    Jessi, you really should go...Little Rock is great!

  3. Jessi, Jillian would do fine! You'd have a blast, GO!! But since you only have one child it maybe nice to fly. Would she have to be in a car seat on the plane? If so then you wouldn't have to worry about not having a car seat while in little rock. For us, it would be rough we still have three in car seats, they most likely wouldn't need them on the plane but till we got out to little rock and had to rent a car to fit us all and the car seats, it makes more sense to drive. We wouldn't all fit in Beks car if we wanted to go away while in little rock. Anyway, you should go either by car or plane:)

    Bek, when is Austin leaving again? It's this coming week right?

    1. they don't let you take car seats on the plane, you have to hold the baby and check the car seats! i advise strongly against driving by yourself. it's WAY too far without someone to share the responsibility :) unless you're a seasoned truck driver of course. so it's settled flamer, you're coming!!! sweeeet! ;-D

      austin leaves a week from today...next saturday!

  4. lol....thanks for all of the encouragement guys!!! i soo want to go...flying is definitely something to think about. and it prob would be just me bc it's easier for me to take off of work...adam doesn't really have anymore vacation time.
    we'll work it out flamer!!!

  5. I'm sorry everyone, guess I was misinformed about car seats and flying:( Sorry!! And Jessi I didn't realize you were going to be going by yourself, in that case I agree with Bek that flying would be the best. Hope you get a chance to visit Bek!

  6. Bum!! I missed this post until now....Haha about the parentheses, by the way. I wish you were here to garden with me....except that gardening here involves swinging a pick-axe, descending into muddy holes (or pumping till your arms want to explode), and carrying a million buckets of water...so, is that still gardening? Ooooh! I have to put pictures of my new gardening endeavors on my blog too. Miss yew!

    And SCATTEGORIES!!!!!! Forgot about that game. I want to play right NOW!
