Nilsson News

Rain, rain, rain!  It sounds like the common thread from Arizona all the way to Idaho.  It is hard to believe that June starts next week and we've only hit 70 a couple of times. The plants in our greenhouse are not super happy about life and are begging to be transplanted.  Hopefully I can help them out this week!
It was a fairly decent week.  Because of the rain, we were able to finish some inside projects.  We worked on refinishing a dresser for Eliza and Henry's new room.  We made some sandals for the three youngest but they haven't been able to wear them yet because they are still in winter boots.  We also completed our kitchen floor.  It didn't turn out the way I'd hoped exactly but it looks better than the previous linoleum.
The kids and Garrett were really nice to me on my birthday and made me feel loved.  Yesterday, for our anniversary, Garrett and I were able to go to an early temple session.  We came home and took the kids to the farmer's market which is always delightful.  After working in the cloudy/rainy/sunny/indecisive weather for a few hours, we went to play racquetball.  It must have been a super slow day because we didn't have to reserve a court and when we arrived they gave us the rackets and ball for free and said to play as long as we wanted.  It was great!  The day ended with a lovely dinner.
I was up all night with a throwing up Millie.  She threw up every half hour for a solid 12 hours.  It was a rough night.  I stayed home from church with the two littlest.  It sounds like a lot of other folks are dealing with a belated winter flu bug.  I hope you can all stay healthy and well and enjoy some sunshine if it ever decides to show its face!

 Our linoleum wasn't the worst I've seen but it was in pretty bad shape.  The floor now is just the sub-floor that we painted, sanded, stained and sealed but it kind of looks like stamped concrete.
A lovely rainbow over Simple Little Farm.  It was so stunning!
