Ok, so this weekend we took a break from the house repair. Andrew and I have been saying since we started dating that we were going to go to Tulip Time and we finally did! It was kind of warm and crazy crowded, but we still had a good time. Of course, I got danish from Jarsma Bakery, so that might have had something to do with me having a good time. They also had an outdoor market which also might have had something to do with it. I did find my mom's Mother's Day gift while we were at Tulip Time, but I'm not going to ruin the surprise.
I came home Friday night to find that my peony bush finally opened! It is now full of beautiful white flowers :) My peonies put me in the mood for even more flowers so I might have made a stop at Goode's greenhouse today. This is the first year I have had to think about shade flowers since every house my mom and I lived in was full sun over the entire yard. With two mature trees covering a majority of our yard, we are working with all shade here. As I was walking around the greenhouse today growing increasingly frustrated looking at all the sun and part sun plants, I saw in the corner of my eye one of my favorites... fuchsia! Now I have a beautiful collection of flowers waiting to be planted. I hope to get to those this week.
Now to the real issue of this post. Currently, Andrew and I are sitting here listening to the storm roll in and wondering if we are going to have another sleepless night with Buddy up panting in our faces. I have talked to coworkers who have the same issue with their adorable doggies. Today we were even at the vet and I think we both contemplated buying a thunder shirt for Buddy. Too many more nights like last night and I think we might break down and do it. Does anyone else have this issue with their dog(s)? Do you have any amazing solutions? We would love to hear about them if you do!
