The Scoop #113

By Anita 23 Comments

Now that it has FINALLY warmed up here, it’s beginning to feel like spring.  I really want to be outside, so I’m thinking of moving my office right out the door onto the front porch. I sure hope it’s nice where you are.

I just took portraits of my daughter this weekend, since she is graduating in just a few short weeks.  We’re excited that she’s moving onto a new chapter in her life, but it does seem sad she’ll no longer be a high school student.  She’s going to college nearby next year, and staying home, so that makes the transition a little easier for us.

We’re very close.  I’m blessed to have a daughter, who at 18, really enjoys spending time with me.  I was told she would pull away when she became a teenager, but it didn’t happen. We have remained close throughout the teenage years.  I’m glad we get along, since she’ll be staying home while attending college, but enough about me, onto the scoop.

Hi Scoop Group! Welcome to THE SCOOP #114!
 
Spring is in full swing at the farmhouse! Can you believe that Easter is just less than 2 weeks away?
 
 
I’m blogging and posting and pinning all things spring and Easter now!
 
Do you know how to dye eggs using onion skins? It’s a tradition that goes back generations in my family. It’s so easy and if you have yellow onions in your pantry and eggs in your frig, you have everything you need to make them.
 
I hope you will dye some of these beautiful eggs this Easter! They are unique and marbleized… and just gorgeous!
 
And who know’s, they just might be a new tradition at you house!

    Your daughter is beautiful! Congratulate her for me. My youngest will be graduating from college in just two more semesters. Where does the time go?
    Like you, I would like to take my office outside. Alas, that will be impossible, so I will have to be happy with open windows.
    Thanks for hosting such a great party!

    I found the glitch with no thumbnails or link button…it appears to be a Firefox issue. Explorer worked just fine…thanks for hosting!
