Ode to Mr. Foxy. . . or. . . holy crap does he ever sleep?!?

Well, my hunky baby's daddy has been at it again. Last week I went for a little business trip through Oregon and Washington. When I left our kitchen still had this LOVELY old wallpaper. . .




Mr. Foxy himself donned this face mask, not to protect from the swine flu. . .


but to do this!!


Sealed the wallpaper, textured the walls and threw up some molding, all before he met us in Seattle for the weekend. 3 nights after work.

We've done a bit of rearranging this week.



Debbie, CLEARLY this room is suffering from a bit of a scale problem. The pic needs to be moved up, the candle sconces are not big enough and the tablescape is sucking even with my gorgeous $10 Cotsco peony flowers. BUT I'm loving this room 100% more than I did before and that makes me happy.

But don't worry, hunky baby's daddy's isn't done yet. Yesterday I went to work, and as usual the yard looked like this.




and by the time I came back 4 hours later (sometimes working on Saturday is AWESOME)the yard looked like THIS!!!



All of our other growing things are still doing just fine. We've had a few new peonies and an amaryllis join us this week. . .






Oh no kids, he's not done yet. Today Mr. Foxy made this lovely card when he was subbing in Primary. It was taken in photobooth because if he knew I was posting this I'd be in trouble. So its a little Happy Mother's Day riddle. Use a mirror if you can't read it.





And yes, the belly continues to grow too.



Can you tell I'd much rather be behind the camera? :)
LOVES! And Happy Spring!
