Happy Mother's Day!

I hope all of you are enjoying your mother's day! I had a wonderful time with my mom yesterday. We went shopping and planted a lot of flowers. I'm not sure why, but recently I've become flower obsessed. I want tons of bright colored flowers everywhere! I've noticed that I tend to keep collecting mostly daisies. I love them! So many colors, so many varieties, extremely dummy proof easy to take care of.

More news from this week: Seth sold his s10. While it is bittersweet to see it gone, it is also a step closer to owning our own house! I can't wait to be able to decorate, paint, and remodel to my heart's content. We still have the 50cc stunt bike and motorcycle (of course) and those will NOT be leaving any time soon. I ordered a very cute hat for baby Weber a few weeks ago on Etsy and it finally came in the mail this past week as well. On Wednesday we had a potluck at work to celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week and I chose to bring my current craving...doughnuts. It was not a well thought out plan to have two and a half dozen doughnuts in my car with me at seven in the morning. I could eat them for with every meal. However, I chose not too. Mostly because I don't want to end up weighing twice as much as I should. I've been searching for good baked doughnut recipes online. Maybe I will head into the kitchen and test some of those recipes out...
