Spring is here!!!

It has been quite awhile since I've posted anything! Sorry about that. Last weekend was my birthday, and it was so great!! It was also Easter weekend, so we got together a few times with McGee's family too. It was a very fun and busy weekend!!

This weekend we've tried to spend a lot of time outside, because it is finally feeling like Spring!!  Yesterday and today were both so warm (in the 60s!!) and sunny. For some reason, the temperature still dropped below freezing last night though, so some of the flowers that started to bloom in our yard weren't too happy about the cold temperature overnight.

You can see the daffodils are a bit droopy! Probably from the freezing overnight temps. 

Here's a purple flower that is sprouting up everywhere! It's all over our lawn and side yard. I'm guessing Lindsey might know what it is?? 

One of our neighbors told us about a really cool hiking path and creek that are nearby, and he said Guinness would love it. So, a few weeks ago we went looking for the path and we found it!!  It's really awesome. We've gone a few times now, but today I finally took my phone with me so I could take pictures! It's such a beautiful area, and it's only about a block or two from our house! We can't wait to see it once the trees have leaves again...

You can see Guinness off-leash if you look closely! He loves it. 

There's Guinness checking out a tree! He runs all over the place, but is very good about coming back to us when we call him. 

My two guys! 

Guinness is checking out the creek.

Guinness is across the creek, and McGee is asking me why I'm not joining them (I didn't wear appropriate shoes... I only had on my chucks, so they had no traction).

You can kinda see a little waterfall! 

Guinness looks like he's getting ready to jump in the creek... 

More Guinness and the creek! 

We've also made a few big purchases! We bought a couch for our den, because we were all just sitting on a loveseat, which worked fine when it was just me and McGee but when Guinness insisted on joining us it got a little cramped! We also bought a dining room table and chairs from a consignment shop, and we're also checking into buying air conditioning (soooo pricey!!). The table is getting delivered today, so I'll post pictures of that another time!

Here's s our new couch (yes, we still have the tags on it... haha)!  Oh and that's Guinness's dog bed on the floor (it kinda matches, coincidentally!). 

And here's the couch with our TV. Excuse the mess (dog toys everywhere... and there's Guinness's tail at the bottom of the picture!). 

I hope all is going great for everyone!!  And thank you all for making my birthday so great last weekend!!  It was a really wonderful weekend.
