Spring Is In The Air

I just love this time of year....IN ARIZONA!!!! It was 86 degrees today and my flowers are all blossoming...even these silk ones! LOL! Actually, since I haven't created anything in the past several days, I decided to get my butt in gear and get moving. Jami and I are hosting a table at our church's Ladies Ministry Spring Tea the beginning of May. We are responsible for decorating our table so I decided to do all the bright pastels.
I lit my scented candle and pretended that all my silk flowers were really the reason the room smelled so good.
I really can't tell you exactly what I am making since it is suppose to be a surprise...

....but I think you can guess a little of what it might look like. I promise to post the pictures when the table is all set.

Last month when my girlfriend, Vicki and I went vintage shopping, I picked up this little silver cream pitcher. I think it is so cute. At first I was going to put one of my little glittery chicks in it for Easter, but now I am not sure what I will do with it. I know it will be "just the right" item in a creation that pops into my head down the road.
This past weekend was spent with our granddaughters, Hanna and Sofia. On Saturday, Papa played with Hanna for several hours while Jami, Sofia and I went shopping for some new clothes for Jami. Hanna worked on her golf stroke and got to drive the golf cart and even the car! Here she is watching Shrek with Papa.
Meanwhile, Sofia went for a stroller ride around the outside mall and got some fresh air and sunshine.

I'm off to Art Group in the morning to watch a watercolor demonstration by my friend, Teri. Then I will drive over to Mesa for a Digital Scrapbooking class at Blissful Living Studio.
Rosi and I signed up to take a Zumba exercise class on Tuesday evenings, so we will find out tomorrow night what Zumba really is......Yikes! Something tells me that there will be a lot of giggeling going on as we try to keep up. Wednesday morning we will be moaning and groaning from soreness!
I'm still plugging along on NutriSystem. It's been a week and I haven't lost any weight yet. That's a little discouraging, but I am remaining optimistic and will continue on. Now I need to run and drink my 8th and last glass of water for the day.
