Last Post for Today, I PROMISE

Sienna is getting so big and her crate has been taking up so much space..... 
just about 3.5 ft x 2.5 ft, its like having another bed in my room...... 
soooooooooooo

I created a space just for her, SPACE SAVING IDEA!!!!

I removed the door to my 2nd closet 
placed one of the hallway gates up to keep her in
&
WHAM
a 5ft. x 3ft. CRATE
That doesn't take up any extra space.

I Love it.

April Garden


This is the current state of my backyard/ garden.....

in 40 days you won't recognize it!


The bottom photo is my STRAWBERRY plant.
He is already going nuts with all this rain and sunshine, I am so excited.
Just about 3 weeks ago he was 2 tiny little green leaves and I thought he wasn't going to make it, but he has pulled through.
