It's beginning to feel a lot like... Spring!

A full weekend! 

Lots of people: foraged for more morels with work friend TR; met Baby R with the whole gang of girlfriends today at lunch; celebrated At yesterday with the whole fam at dinner; chatted with LB, SM, JB, And JA at separate times when they stopped by; and got lots of FaceTime and phone-calls in as well.

Lots of yardwork: Big A and I worked for hours on the pond yesterday and today and are so close to closer being done. We both found the perfect place to find stone edging--Big A online and me from driving past the place on my way to work--and... it turned out to be the same place! I like working with Big A on this project. I guess we could have hired someone to do this work, but it was spend-y + I like that this way I will always remember us creating it together every time I catch a glimpse of it.

Pic: The backyard looks so green. I'm going to treat myself to a visit to the plant store tomorrow!

I think yesterday was unofficially Yard Work Day. And Pond Day. Rick was outside doing both and it made a huge difference.

Suddenly, everything is green, green, GREEN and the trees are canopies again. It seems to have happened overnight.

I know you'll enjoy your pond.

Steph--Truly, it was <3.

Nance--Yes, it feels so happy and magical! Light makes such a difference in my mood. (I can't wait to be done with the pond RN.)
