Birthday narcissus

My local "birthday twin", JoAnn, gave me this beautiful plant for my birthday (tomorrow). I love daffodils/narcissus. They always look so happy and delicate.

Uhoh - I just remembered that I was supposed to get laundry done today. I guess I'd better not spend anymore time ruminating on my blog post. Bye!

A new self-portrait!

One of these days I’ll get a good shot of my new haircut (if I can get it styled like Corey did), but today you just get a quick self-portrait taken with my HTC Incredible and Retro Camera. I love my new haircut – it’s so springy, swishy, and sassy!

Not award-winning photography, but…

I love all the textures in this little patch of spring. The grass gives me hope that we will soon have warm weather and sunny days. I just liked the combination of pine cones, grass, sticks, lumber, and who knows what else. This was shot for the Scavenge Challenge on Flickr.

More pets!

I promise there are other beings in Scrivnerburg besides the pets. As I said before, it’s been a very busy week, so I’ve just snapped photos as the opportunity arose. I just caught this moment between Crunch and Molly. Two best buddies who like to pretend they’re not.

Again–apologies for a lack of posts

I had a couple very, very busy work weeks, and I just wasn’t able to get everything done. I had to let the blog slide until I was caught up on work. I’m thrilled to say that I am currently all caught up! Whoohoo! I don’t have to work extra hours, nor do I have to put in any over this weekend to “finish up.” Whew!

I think Queen Cheerio was feeling a bit left out with all the focus being on the recently shredded Crunch. She’s been much more affectionate and talkative than normal. I took a picture of her for a photo challenge, and to stroke her ego just a bit.

Easter Pretties

My precious friend bought some Easter clothes for my kids. This is Kristi's dress and headband. I can't wait to see her in it! It's so girly and pretty! She bought dresses for her girls too, and I'm going to take pictures of all 3 girls in the Easter Pretties. Fun, fun, fun!

Look who came to visit!

This dove and another came to visit our yard, and I think they may have brought spring with them!

We celebrated Nathan's birthday today...here's my favorite shot from the day.
