I have been pretty bad about staying up to sew at night. I haven't seen too many posts from the night owls and have figured we are all catching a few extra winks!
With the breaks in the rain, we have been able to get outside and get in some early work in the gardens. The fresh air and weeding have helped with the sleep too! Pulling weeds really isn't my favorite thing, but if I can get them early & often it seems there are less of them later in the season. We've been here 10 years and the project list doesn't seem to get any shorter.
I am contemplating having Mom's side of the family over for a 4th of July family reunion here at the farm. My step-son is getting married at the end of August, and he was thinking about having the rehearsal dinner here too. Either one of those events will add to the list of things to be done!
We have hosted large (50+) barbeque events here, so we can handle the food, and I'm contemplating renting a port-a-potty if we do the family thing, as that may be well over 50 people if everyone comes. My question is have any of you planned a family reunion or been to one that worked really well? I am looking for ideas for planning and day-of stuff.
I hope you all are beginning to see some signs of spring, even if it is just the snow & ice melting.
