making ourselves a home


What a weekend in western michigan, a place where the average temperature is 40 degrees at this time of year, it was in the 60's this weekend. Not only did I get a few things done inside but a very dear friend came and helped put up a temporary fence so Ernie could enjoy our new backyard until the lawn and such can be put in a couple months from now (he loves it so much I cannot get him inside right now, even the temperature has fallen almost 15 degrees in the last couple hours - our taste of spring about gone for a bit - as he is fascinated with chasing leaves and all the new smells here).
Still stacks of boxes all over the place and tradespeople in and out of the house but we are starting to feel it a home. Very comforting.

Your puppy is too cute! Hope the weather improves for you, we are getting a "cold" front here in Florida, (yeah, right, they have no idea what cold is) of get this: 45 degrees the next few nights. I'm a native NY'er, that's not cold! My DH's family was from Michigan. Hope your spring is lovely, I wish we could grow bulbs here!
