Update on Spring To Do List

So here is my update on my to do list...I did way better than the Winter one.
1. Really decorate my deck this Spring/Summer. I plan to enjoy this space alot. I am planning an herb garden in my side area as well. 

Done.  I even got to the herb garden and I am enjoying my deck immensely as are the crazy kittens. 
2. I have 10 scarves that I plan to make.

Did not even complete one :(   
3. Get back to cooking and not just eating convenience foods.

This is a partial completion.  I have had a little more time to cook real food, but I have gotten a little lazy with cooking all together.  So I am learning to make more than we need so there are leftovers.
4. Enjoy Katie's last Musical and Prom

Done.  And I really did enjoy them!!
5. Plan Zoey, Cass, and Kate's Graduation Party...oh dear....

Done.  However, Zoey did not get to participate due to a new job.  But it was a successful party and a good time was had by all.

What's going on around here....

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
