Oh Hubby...what have you done!

This is proof of why I should more closely monitor Aaron's viewing habits on Craigslist.

One night he stuck his head the house and shouted, "honeeeeey, can you help me unload the car..."  Of course I can!  I'm a good wife, why wouldn't I?  I figured we're bringing in the groceries or something.  When I got outside I see the car is crammed full of a new-to-us tent to use for Aaron's art shows!! And when I say "crammed"...I mean CRAMMED.  It's complete with awning and (admittedly) cool display walls...shown here strapped to the top of the car.  It has all the bells and whistles and I've gotta say is a pretty deluxe tent.  I can imagine it will look fabulous when we put it to use.

But  here's the rub:  It took us both 20 minutes just to just unload the thing and now it takes up a 1/4th of the studio...with no hope I'll ever be able to reach my small stash of personal items I dared keep keep in there.  I'm assured "we got a good deal".  I have no doubt.  I'm bracing myself for the day he walks through the door and says it's time for us to buy a minivan.  I'll just say, that minivans are just one reason I never wanted kids, however I don't know any other way we'll get this tent to an art show.  With this purchase we just might have outgrown the car.  

So here's the up-shot of being married to my artist-hubby! I'm sure he'll send better pictures and write up something nice about this...but let's face it, this is one mighty cool pendant, deserving of a state-of-the-art tent for displaying it in.  I love it!

It's also fair to say I get carried away too.  He's one batch of planting I did a few weeks ago.  Grow baby, grow!

Here's a poppy just about to bloom.  He's sooo cuuuute with his little green beanie hat.

We couldn't wait for the dahlia's we planted so we bought a couple of already grown dahlias.  Once again, it was a good deal. 

That's the news from Anner and Aaron's.  Art and flowers.  We don't need much more than that.... except maybe for a tractor-trailer to carry our stuff around in.  I'll blog you the day that happens.
