Linking up (albeit late) with Syndal and Sarah for a round of TWI:
This Weekend, I found a local food bank low on food, so made a special trip to Costco. I had a fun time filling my cart with items from the food bank's need list, and ultimately donated 113 pounds of food in honor of my daughter, Sarah. Sarah plans to perform 27 Acts of Kindness for her upcoming 27th birthday, and asked friends and family to participate as well. I am looking forward to reading Sarah's blog listing all of those acts!
This Weekend, my brother-in-law and his wife were in town visiting our nephew. We went over to watch some NCAA basketball (LOVE March Madness!), and were surprised to find they had a few new animals. Check out these cute chihuahua puppies:

This Weekend, I contacted a local lawn service to get an estimate for aerating, thatching, top dressing and overseeding our lawn. This is a big deal, since we have always done that work ourselves. None of these tasks are particularly strenous when done alone, but in their entirety encompass quite a bit of work. The last time we thatched a portion of our yard, we hand-raked 12 (twelve!) wheelbarrow loads of thatch out of the lawn. Ok, this time someone else can have all the fun.
Looks like we need some fill dirt in the "pond"
This Weekend, we celebrated our granddaughter's fifth birthday. Her actual birthday was earlier in the week, but our plans were derailed when she came down with scarlet fever! Fortunately, she's on the mend and had very specific requests for her birthday brunch: Norwegian pancakes, sausage AND bacon, strawberries AND grapes AND pineapple, and juice. We bought her the cutest little razor scooter (in pink, of course) and she already crashed once in the kitchen. Love her!
She's ready for kindergarten!
Hope you weekend was filled with love, fun, family and friends!
