Balcony Fun

We finally found cushions for our patio furniture. Let me tell you guys, this was such a chore, as there really is not much to choose from at our local stores. So we grabbed these cushions and think they are pretty perfect for the spring season.


We bought this beautiful tree today and planted it into this fun pot. Our patio needed a touch of plant life, and we thought this would be perfect for our morning ambiance.
Now I absolutely love our balcony. I can't wait until it is a little warmer outside, so I can plant flowers to make it even more colorful. Can you tell I'm in spring mode?

Something I was super excited about was finding these this morning. My little herbs are sprouting! I can't wait to see how they turn out.
Hope you all have a wonderful and blessed weekend!

I love the balcony!

On a different note....yesterday I cut my own bangs. What is so dumb is that I had an appointment today to get my hair cut. My hair gal was very sweet. I sent her a text yesterday to warn her. I promised her I wouldn't attempt it again.

Talk to ya later!
Yay....tomorrow we leave for Chicago. I'm taking the laptop so I can stay in touch with everyone.

Love,
Val

I love the tree!
I've got Spring Fever too. My seedlings are kicking butt! Especially my green beans, they're probably 12 inches tall, woohoo.

Good luck with your herbs, you'll have to share your recipes when you cook with them

I love dressing up a patio! Yours looks great! And I'm impressed that you planted that gorgeous tree! Every single tree or plant or flower in our house is fake! Everyone says they look real, that was the goal! I can't wait to do an herb garden either, definitely post how it goes!
