Quote of the Day

King 5 News @ 10pm:

"The US will play England tomorrow
at the World Cup. This game will be a rematch for the two teams, the US won the last time they played each other in 1950"

Ahahahaha, seriously?! Rematch?!?! It was 60 years ago!...I think England has gotten over it! ;)

Good luck to both teams tomorrow!...God Save the Queen! :)

Our little garden

Here are a few pics of our little garden that I planted a few weeks ago! Due to the wooded area directly behind our building, we only get a few hours of direct sunlight a day (provided its not being wonderfully west coast - gray and pissing rain) so we have to jam our few pots of flowers and cute Japanese maple into the corner of the deck that gets the most sunlight. I'm really pleased with how pretty they've turned out! The colours of the stock flowers are so vibrant, the violas are soft and pretty and the lavender is starting to bloom.

After much coercion Moose agreed to have his picture taken in our "garden".

Under foot beauties

I came across these two beauties today on Overstock.com

I would love love love to have this Sage Green Peacock wool area rug for my living room, provided the colours were true to the way my screen displays them!

And if I had a cream/neutral coloured themed family room or bedroom, I think this Gensis wool area rug would add a nice punch of pattern without overwhelming the room.

PS - the formatting of these pics is driving me nuts! Why do you vex me photobucket???!!!
