My parent's got a contract on their farm. I have so many mixed emotions. I knew this would be tough. I am elated that they will be so much closer. But when I think of all the good times at the farm, and of its incredible beauty, I get so emotional. I have often said that place has felt more like "home" than any house we ever lived in growing up--and I've never lived in the house. My parent's moved there after I was out of college and living on my own. But I love their new house and am very excited to help my mom with all the details of making it feel like home.

We actually spent Saturday at their new house and then had dinner at Cowan's for Mother's Day. On Sunday, I slept in while Lindsey made me breakfast. I got some caramel coral bells and a bunch of other sweet little things from my two darlings. We worked in the yard most of the day. I got my zinnias planted and Lindsey finished the vegetable garden. It was a lovely weekend.
