Buds

I get to take a little road trip this weekend. All by myself. Alone. My niece is celebrating her First Eucharist in Milwaukee and I'm going to go be there with her. I was scheduled to be the "proxy" godparent - something the real godparent didn't even know about - but I've since been asked to relinquish that role. Now, I'm just going for the free booze at the brunch.

While I'm gone, Jon will have to take care of a few things around here. Worst First off, Kate has one of those day long-dance competitions again. He will have to spend the whole day in a dark theatre watching young girls dance. Wonder just how much booze there will be at the brunch?
OK - well he better not let anything happen to these guys because I've been doing a really great job of watching them grow. Everyday. Just staring at them.

What takes them so long to turn into tulips??

I've been seeing everyone else's Irises in bloom. Just when do mine decide it's time to bloom?

Glad I'm not the only one who goes for the booze :)

You're lucky - my tulips aren't even showing ANY color yet - tight and green. This cool weather doesn't help matters much either.

Have a good weekend!

I think the bunnies ate all my tulips.

Have a fun trip! It looks like the tulips should be just about ready by the time you get back.

Our tulips have come and gone too.

Hope your drunken weekend trip went well! (typical 1st Eurcharist, no? lol). Oh, and that that other, delayed thing has resolved itself properly. I can't wait either. Close.......but not yet.
