  2. Hi Dawn!

    Love this post! I love taking the time to sit back and really think about what's going on in your life at any particular moment. Really makes you think, doesn't it? Your kids have quite the packed schedule!! I can see why summer vacation will be much anticipated for all of you. Good luck to Renee, I'm sure she'll do fabulous ;)

    The weather has been so nice here as well, finally getting used to the idea of warm temps..it's been nice! I too have been walking around, noticing the green buds on the trees and it's just a breath of fresh air!! Our lilacs will be blooming in a few weeks, so, so, SO excited for them! It's the anniversary of my grandmas death on Sat (May 18th), she'll have been gone for 16 years and lilacs were her favourite flower..always reminds me of her ;)

    Hope you enjoy the rest of your week and can't wait to see your next PL pages!!

  6. Oh wow, I can imagine how excited it was to get an Alisa Burke's art piece :). Her colors are screaming, Summer!!. LOVE to hear all good things going on there, especially when you're soon to be able to have nature walks :). LOVE lilacs, wonder if they're thin enough to keep under books. I'm crazy of collecting flowers for art nowadays :). HUGS.
