Tulips are blooming...

May has proven to be unpredictable up until this point as far as weather is concerned. We've been cold and rainy then warm and rainy, then sunny, then cold, then back to rainy again. But thankfully we've had some good days to enjoy all that spring has to offer here on the island - one of those things being the Stewart Estate Bulb Tour. As gorgeous as ever, and for once on a warm and sunny morning, the walk was a nice start to my Saturday. The tulips seemed much fuller than last year, looking more like a bed I'd like to lie down in for a nap in the sun.

First Day of Spring

The first day of spring on Mount Desert Island was beautiful! The sun was shining and mother nature decided to bless us with close to 70 degree temperatures. Needless to say, a trip to the beach was more than necessary! Thank goodness we have friends with cute babies and dogs we can play with on these beautiful days!

Spring Painting

This is how Joe and I spent the last weekend.

We decided our walls looked too dingy (and yellowed, and dirty and just plain gross), and what better way to spend some sunny spring days-that aren't quite warm enough to play outside-than painting! So now, our house looks like new! Well not quite, but it looks 100% better! We still have some trim to finish up, but hopefully I'll have some finished pictures by the end of the week!
