Roses are pink, Salvia is blue
And my hydrangea is currently green, but by this summer I'm hoping to see lots of white blooms!

It's Been Awhile
I haven't posted a picture of the progress on the fireplace in awhile. Here's how it is looking these days:
For previous photos of the fireplace renovation see here, here and here.
We need to build the mantel (which will be cherry), throw up the rest of the stone and paint the built-ins. Speaking of painting the built-ins... we can't decide what to do! Should we paint them the color of the trim (silky white), the color of the walls (gobi desert), do the sides white and the backs beige? Or something else? Any suggestions, ideas, tips, etc. are welcome!

Celebrate!
We've had a lot to celebrate lately including:
Joey and Lauren had a couples shower for their upcoming wedding. It was at a gorgeous house in Cool Springs with the most amazing view, great food and entertainment provided by Joey while opening gifts. We also got to see/meet some of the other people that will be a part of their big day.
Keith's dad's birthday was yesterday. We had a family lunch at Aimee and Nick's house on Sunday. He got a new toy that was put to use that afternoon while working on our fireplace.
And, as of April 1, all of my student loans have been paid!
All things worth celebrating! :)

Signs of Spring
The flowers are blooming.
Stormy weather is frequent.
And Darcy got a haircut...

Puppies and Pure Barre!
So these two things have nothing to do with each other except that they've occupied my time lately. Or at least Pure Barre has. The puppies are just a pleasant distraction on the weekends.
Just what am I talking about? Well, there's a workout phenomenon called Pure Barre and I've just jumped on the bandwagon. I have a love/hate relationship with Pure Barre. I hate every minute of the 55 minute class which is "a total body workout that lifts your seat, tones your thighs and burns fat in record-breaking time." I love it when I leave though and can't wait until the next class.
And the puppies? Aimee is fostering 4 precious puppies and their sweet mom. Can you believe someone threw these cuties in a dumpster? They're so wiggly and cuddly and deserve a great home!
