Happy Birthday to our sassy smartass niece Georgie. We love you girl. How did these two magnificent young people get to be 19 so quickly? We went to the south bay today to celebrate with the family and to surprise the grown-up kids with an easter egg hunt…Yes, 19 and still wanting to find eggs….

Floundering in an emotional pit
Oh lord the joys of motherhood. Or should I say the sadness of realizing that it is well and truly gone. The chicken has really flown the nest and it is what it is. As you know the boy is home from college this week and it was as I expected but it is still…
Hello, now can you stay at home for 5 min?
As you can see I am still loving the Cricut maker machine. It rocks. I have a lot to learn but I am slowly figuring it out. I love cutting unusual images like this one. So the boy arrived home on Saturday evening. We have him for a week…or should I say we will get…
