Spring has sprung
Our daffodils are finally open! We were surprised to see the colors of these ones. Richie said the inside almost looks pink. Most of the ones we have seen in other gardens are the yellow ones. Now we just have to hope it doesn't snow and make them wilt!
Anxiously waiting on tulips...

Guess who...
loves the warm weather???
The people who get to eat these...
and the dog that belongs to these very dirty feet!

Contrary to popular belief
Yes, we are still alive here at red door. After nearly a week of feeling icky I'm starting to feel half human again... human enough to actually pick up my camera. So be warned: LOTS OF PICTURES TO FOLLOW!
Last Sunday we went to the Cleveland Auto Show. It was pretty fun. Richie and I decided this was our favorite car. The 2009 Dodge Challenger. It's pretty sweet looking and it's orange!
The Toyota booth was our favorite though. I got my picture taken with Kyle Busch's #18 m&m's Camry.
Richie won the NASCAR trivia challenge by being the first to answer 5 questions correctly. Note to the Toyota people: When you see a guy wearing a hat with a number on it he might, just might, be a racing fan.
And now... the long awaited end tables!
They look great in the living room. The size is much more appropriate for the space and the color of the wood matches really well. They weren't even that hard to put together and they feel pretty sturdy. We want to get some baskets to put on the shelf since they don't have drawers.
This guy has been my best buddy the last few days. I had to take his picture. We love our Bevo.
We finally found a place to put our "G". It had been hanging in the living room for a few weeks and I kept saying it looked funny on the big wall. For some reason we finally realized that it would look much better on a smaller wall. It looks great at the top of the stairs. A big thanks goes to the "handy manny" for hanging it up.
We got this really cool candle thing (I don't know a better word for it than "thing") that looks great on the mantle. It seems like suddenly everything is coming together in the living room. It's starting to look pretty good.
We even hung up our St. Patrick's Day decoration. Thanks mama!
Bevo's waiting for some visitors!

Weekend Update
What have we been up to????
Valentine wrap-up.
Richie got tools...
I got a new willow...
and the bathroom got ready for the Daytona 500. The race really wasn't all that good after four months of waiting and three hours of pre-race gossiping. Rain + red flag = a boring ending.
On Tuesday we got a King Cake...
guess who found the baby! Looks like he's buying the king cake next year.
Bevo got a really big bone! He loves it but we have to take it away and hide it so he will go to his box. Hopefully this one lasts longer than a few hours.
On the "to do" list for this week:
- clean up the basement
- finish up my Masters class. (only 3 more to go!)
- laundry
