Fargo Favorites #31

1. Flowers
I love, love, love taking pictures of flowers! They are so gorgeous. I'm planning on redoing my upstairs bathroom with some of my pictures as accents. I'll let you know how it turns out but for now, here's a few of my favorites.
2. Easter Weekend
I love Easter time! I love the time spent with family & friends, the hunts, the egg decorating and of course, the egg fights. But most of all, I love that it turns our focus to our Savior and His miraculous gift to me!
3. Busy-ness
Being busy is a good thing. Keeping busy keeps me out of bed and keeps my mind off the ever-depressing weather here. It's good to be busy!
4. Owning a working Washer & Dryer
A while back our dishwasher died. We've really enjoyed hand-washing dishes and have decided not to get a new one until we remodel our kitchen but can I just tell you how much I am grateful for my washer & dryer. Can you even imagine not having one and washing clothes by hand or hauling things to the laundry mat? AHHHHH! What a nightmare that would be! Ours is having a draining problem lately but hopefully we can tweak a pipe and it'll be all working well. Nonetheless, I'll take a drainage problem as long as it washes the loads and loads and loads each week.
5. April Showers Bring May Flowers
I am totally ready for some good, warm weather here but I do enjoy the rain. I enjoy the wet-world look and the fact that it melts away the snow and turns all the grass green. It's way pretty!
Funny story though about the rain- As we've been preparing for Justice's baptism, we have sang the song When I am Baptized several times as a family. Part if it goes like this...

I like to look for rainbows whenever there is rain
And ponder on the beauty of an earth made clean again.
I want my life to be as clean as earth right after rain.
I want to be the best I can and live with God again.
The last time we sang it, we were laughing pretty hard. Not because of the song but becasue Liberty has some issues with the lyrics! She says she never understood this song. In her perspective, after a rain storm, the world is kind of a mess. "It's muddy, things fall down from the trees, and there are dead flies and worms all over the ground. It definietly doesn't look clean." Well, I guess for the most part, she's right. At least after a good rain storm in Fargo. LOL Oh the pure perspective of a child! She was so adamate that the song was wrong that Brett finally asked her if she'd like us to write someone and tell them that the song is false. LOL! We had a pretty good laugh!

What puts a SPRING
in your step?
