Wishing we were still here...

in the land of sand and sun and sea.

Still trying to get back to our routine after our trip (and we've been home for over a week...but a very busy, unusual week!) Lots of favorite pictures to share soon!

Hope you're having a great Memorial Day weekend!

Nine Years

Today.

I love you Brent.

wishes and thank yous

A special wish for a very Happy Mother's Day, to my Mom, who has been my best friend for as long as I can remember. I love you and am so very very thankful for you. Can't wait to see you soon!

And a thank you to those three precious and adorable children of mine. For loving me. For the privilege it is to be your mother. I praise and thank God for entrusting you three to me and your Daddy. I love you!

(Just a cute note...my sweet Hadleigh came and snuggled me this morning and said with a bright smile on her face "Happy Father's Day, Mommy!" I smiled, said thankyou, and said "Did you mean Mother's Day?" We had a good giggle together about it...and I will forever remember it!)

Happy May.

Seriously? We're five days into May? And I had such a fun and colorful May Day post planned. Maybe next year.

April and May have been (and will continue to be) so very busy.

We've spent a bit of every morning and every afternoon and every evening enjoying the gorgeous spring weather. (Yes, it's still windy.)

We've wrapped up the majority of our "scheduled" yearly activities, which has left five full mornings this week. Fabulous. There is just something to say for an unscheduled workweek.

We've had dentist appointments...three little healthy smiles! (And my word of advice to all new parents? Take you child to the dentist at age two. At least. She was a pro...hardly batted an eye. Her older brother and sister (who started the dentist a little later in life than two?) not so much. You'd think they would know the drill by now. (And, yes, Mom, I do remember who their mother is. Sigh.)

And currently? These three cuties?


Are ALL sleeping simultaneously. A little bit of bliss on this gorgeous May day. I'm off to enjoy the moments I have left being creative. Or reading a book. Or sitting, soaking in the silence.
