I don't think it's spring!

what a week! we went from it being quite lovely outside to freezing cold with 30+ mph winds. i think i am colder now then during the winter. anyway, before this terrible wind and cold weather came through again we started working outside in our backyard. we got our whole garden area ready to be fertilized and rototilled. it was an area that was covered with concrete and part of the patio (the patio ran the whole length of the house--weird previous owners). half the patio was nice stones and the other half was concrete and terribly poured concrete at that. it was disintegrating and completely uneven, so we decided to rip it all out and put the garden there, not to mention it's the only place in the whole yard that gets sun all day long. anyway, we did that and ripped out old tree and bush stumps and made a flower bed in a different area in the back yard until this cold weather came back. now we just hang out inside, which i guess is good because we are getting some other projects done, actually making dinner before 7 at night (because it's so much more fun to be outside than cooking right now) and luke is not constantly falling down all the time. he learned to walk 2 weeks ago and he thinks he is the coolest thing around. it is so fun to watch him TRY to chase the kids. he just giggles and giggles and trys to walk at the same time and most of the time it doesn't work and then he falls. he has also learned to pout worse than a girl. he covers his eyes, ducks his head, slaps the ground and even makes a pretend cry. it is so funny. well on to more projects. today it is making birthday invitations for kathryn's b-day. she is very excited and has decided she wants ponies ones so....hope their cute, if not 4 year olds don't care right?
