Yesterday marked a new beginning for us. We now have our house in the "country" and yesterday was the first time we had been in there solely, on our own. Chris took this photo of it when we stopped by on Wednesday during a major spring shower. The slate roof was glistening. We brought food over to the the house yesterday and set up our lawn chairs (or rather, our roof deck chairs) to enjoy our first meal at the house. Even Harry enjoyed some hamburger! He was very intrigued by where we were and even explored on his own.
Of course, during and after our visit, we had so many plans to do this and that, in and around the house. The list is endless and I can't seem to keep it all straight or even begin to figure out what to do first. It seems like so much to do and all very exciting, daunting, but rewarding at the same time.
One of the plans is to set up an outdoor garden space. Right now, our garden space is limited to a few sproutlings in out window sills. This week was a major turn for my green thumb, as they started to grow quite nicely! It's amazing just how much the sprouts grow in one day (Chris doesn't believe me, but I watch them closely so I am sure of it).
