I like #328

It's been over two months since I've posted and lots of stuff has happened since then.  Lots good and lots just very very busy and stressful.  And every time I sat down to write a post the idea of trying to catch up here was just overwhelming.  So I decided this week would just be for this week.  Maybe I'll get caught up on stuff from the last couple of months or maybe not, but I'm starting for now.

The last few weeks have been filled with work in my garden.  I expanded the garden quite a bit this year because the new porch ate up some of the old garden and so I sort of restructured.  Hopefully I can get a whole post up about the new porch and garden at some point.  The garden went in in stages this year and I think in general it's not going to be a great garden year, but it's all in and some stuff is growing well at the moment.  I love going out to look at it.

On a related note, I accidentally mowed over this burrow of adorable baby bunnies in the front yard last Monday.  Apart from being traumatized by the noise I think they were all ok.  I've seen them in the last couple of days hopping around the yard.  I'm torn between loving suburban wildlife/thinking their adorable, and desperately hoping they don't go into the garden.

Luckily my wonderful pups are doing great, although if I let them in the garden they immediately pee on the vegetables.

Last week we celebrated Pentecost at church, and I got this wonderful picture with two good friends from curch.  It's such a wonderful community!!

Speaking of friends,  last weekend the OKC Phil did a semi-staged performance of Tosca and Brett and I went.  It was just fantastic.  Really good.

I even got to spend a little time in my studio last weekend and got started on a new illuminated manuscript quilt.  It felt so so good to be doing something creative for a chage.  And I love all the colors.  Definitely in the very early stages but it feels good to have something going.

And finally I made a delicious cherry pie this week.  I decided we need to eat the good homegrown cherries in the freezer and it was so tasty.

I hope this is the start of more regular posting, and I hope you're all having some good things to celebrate.  For more good things, head over to LeeAnnaLeeAnna's!
