Spring Fever

The last few days of GORGEOUS weather have given me a huge case of spring fever. I'm already pessimistic thinking about what next week will bring... it's only the beginning of March, and the chances are slim-to-none that this weather is going to stick around. And besides, didn't the groundhog say there would be 6 more weeks of winter? We're only 4 weeks into it...

I've been working on Nate's quilt most of the evening and it is coming along FABULOUSLY. I'm so excited to see what it will look like when all is said and done! Of course, it's nowhere near perfect, but I was able to let go of my perfectionism for this one project and take the whole thing in as a learning experience. I'll be finishing the actual quilting tonight (hopefully) and then I just have the binding left!

We replaced our camera batteries (again), so here is one of my fantastic living room pillows. I got the fabric at JoAnns and it's going to be 30% off next week... I'm seriously considering buying more to make kitchen curtains. (The kitchen is just to the right of the couch.)

My couch isn't really as dark as it looks in that picture, and the pillow is a little brighter in real life. This is why I'm trying to learn how to use my camera more efficiently (since as much as I want a DSLR they're super pricey!)

Nate and I walked to the park yesterday because the weather was SO gorgeous (although it was 10 degrees warmer today!)

I got him to smile, but he was really not sure what to think about the swing (it was his first time!) He was a little nervous about it.
