Happy Homemaker Monday

  

Please join Sandra at Diary of a Stay-at-Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday!

I had a really blessed birthday weekend.  My family always does it up for the birthdays!  Jeff cooked us all a delicious spaghetti dinner and made homemade bread for garlic bread.  We decided on the Dolly Parton coconut cake and French vanilla icecream and it was yummy! 

The Weather:::
  

Spring in Detroit!  Upper 50s, lower 60s and RAIN RAIN RAIN

As I look outside my window:::

It's dreary out BUT it's getting green!  The lilac bush outside my window is starting to flower and a lot of the trees have on their spring green! 

Right now I am:::

Working, watching Days of Our Lives and typing this up. 

Thinking and pondering:::

About so much - maybe I will share some of it next week! 

On my bedside table:::
All the stickers! Pens! Books! Journals! 

On my tv this week:::
