Lilacs in Bloom

My neighbor surprised me today with a bundle of lilacs..I love little surprises like this. It was one of those days & just want I needed. We added it to our "nature table," by the front door. So far we have bird nests, a monarch butterfly & a few other dead insects. The kids love looking at these up close & it is pretty fascinating. Most of the time anything flying & buzzing they are are running around screaming about, so it's cool to inspect them up close.



I also sent my mother's day packages today to NC..I had fun making little gifts for my grandma, aunt, mom & sister. Here's a little peek at something I knitted for them.
