InstaTuesday with Jane!

Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is having a great week! I'm liking up with Jane at Taingamala 
for....

 If you missed my Thrifty Treasures post, you should check it out to see what treasures I have found for our bedroom.

Jon brought home flowers for me!! :)

Don't you HATE it when this happens!? I love this palate but I don't want to buy another one for just the one color.

What do you think about our new flower bed in the backyard?! Come spring we are hoping to plant some peppers, tomatoes and maybe some peas :)

Made this yummy treat the other night! Perfect for a little salty and sweet evening snack!

These are all the pics I had from this last week! It's your turn to link up with Jane and share what you captured this week!

I actually have a green thumb!!

Last weekend I pulled some really stubbun weeds and planted some more flowers in the front yard!!  I've been planting flowers little by little because I didn't know how good I would be at keeping up with them, but to my surprise, the flowers I have planted still look great! I may actually have a green thumb after all!! :) I get that from my mom ;) 

Anyway, I hope you can all get out in the yard soon. I recommend it if you would like to relieve some stress and it'sgreat exercise!

Have a wonderful week!

Whew! What a week!!

As you may know from a previous post( A place we call home) my husband and I have been busy  moving into our new home! I took a few days off last week from blogging and reading blogs so I could get organized and moved in the best I can while my parents were here from Houston to help. We also haven't switched over the internet from the apartment, so I'm blogging at Starbucks sipping on the best drink ever! The famous PSL with soy milk! I just can't get enough of them!

Here is what has been going on the past week...

First, my mom and grandpa drove up to "supervise" while I pack. They were great company!! My mom recently had rotator cuff surgery so she had to take it easy.

The morning they arrived we enjoyed lunch at Denny's

                                                        Then the fun began!

Moving makes you dog tired.....

It was my grandpas last night visiting so we enjoyed a nice Italian dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in Downtown McKinney!!

Then it was back to more moving....

 We decided to take a break from working inside and do some yard work and man did that kick my butt! I pulled out all of the dead bushes and some of those roots were so big and tough!! My dad also drove up from Houston to lend a helping hand later in the week!

                                      Digging out those stubborn bushes!! I think there were at least 8!

                                                       Planting some mums!!

Saturday morning we went to the local Farmers Market to buy some of our weekly groceries.

There were some plumbing issues one night...and we finally ate dinner around 11PM! We were starving!!!!

The last night my parents were here we celebrated my mom's birthday! I was so thankful that I could celebrate it with her this year! We went out to dinner and she took home a piece of Key Lime Pie!

Whew! What a busy week! We still have a few more things to move in, but man am I tired!! I hope you all had a great week and I look forward to catching up with all the blogs I follow! Even though I have only been away a week...I have really missed it.

Have a great day!
