Did I hear that there is a Pladate at the Pixie Palace???

Oh Yeh! I LOVE Playdates!!!

Oh look at all the FUN things in there -- Ooh - I can't wait!!!

Hello -- anyone home??? I wonder where everyone is????

Did I hear someone coming???

Oh -- maybe they are over here.....

Oh -- were playing UNDER the playhouse??? Ok....

It sure is dark under here...

Thanks for the fun game of Hide and Seek!

See you NEXT time!!

So, squirrels aren't necessarily my favorite animals, but I really don't mind the 4 or 5 grey squirrels that we have hanging out at our house. They run around and play -- eat the bird seed - and drive the dogs WILD -- but they are pretty fun to watch! As I was stalking my favorite blogs this morning, I happened to look out at the playhouse and saw this squirrel just sitting there looking in. He/she sat there for a long time, just looking -- I though for sure that it was going to go inside. It never did, but it sure looked curious. I thought it was the cutest thing! I'm actually REALLY glad that it didn't go inside. Like I said -- I think that they are fun to watch, but they really are dirty little things and I really don't want them to think the Pixie Palace is their home and settle in!

We had a very productive weekend.... Bobby worked more on his shed turned sauna -- it's coming along great -- there is even a place to sit now. One more seat to go, a little trim and then the entry area and we will have a sauna...Yey -- then he can concentrate on Bode's tree house -- he is SOOO EXCITED! (Me too!) He also got the dock in yesterday. It's been so nice here (an ACTUAL SPRING -- I am over the moon!) we are excited to get on the lake! My goal is to finish the boat house this summer. I wonder if THIS is the year????? I sure hope so! We'll see how it goes! Bobby even got to take the kids fishing on the dock yesterday -- they picked worms and headed down there --but according to Bode "we got skunked!" Oh well - there will be plenty more opportunities. Watch out fish!! I worked on the basement most of the weekend. I am so excited to have my craft room finished! I am getting closer every day. Most of the basement looks trashed -- but I am getting there -- I have about 9 big bags to go to Goodwill so far and I have tons to go. It feels soooo good to declutter! AND...I can't wait to walk into by nice clean, organized craft room -- ooh -- I get goosebumps just thinking about it!

Well - I'm off to finish some laundry and spiff up our abode.

love.....Mona
