Shhhhhhh....

French Doors

I remember when Ray and I went shopping for french doors for the playroom. We hemmed and hawed, waxed and waned at all of our choices. Ray pushed for the doors with framed 15-window compartments. I wanted one pane of glass. Ray won.

This is why I wanted one pane of glass.

Memorial Day Weekend

Whoa! What a weekend. .....we sold our house, had a girl day, had allergy testing, went for a BBQ at Uncle Mikies, celebrated Nana Pam, partied with the Moore's, and bought a house! 

...details on the home stuff to follow. Here are pictures from our weekend.

Whoa... What a weekend.

Conversation with Maddy:

...crash, bang, tumble. 

Maddy: oh, ma... Yeah those were the scissors falling off my bed.

Me: greeeeaaaat

Maddy: why great? Why?

Me: because I have been looking for those scissors, and you had them on your bed, didn't put the, away and now they are stuck under your bed. You should have been responsible and put them away.

Maddy: maaaaaaaaaaa, I'm learning. I don't know these things.

Reed & Papa

Because Papa is pushing the kids on the floor again! :)

Tea with a Princess

Today we had a special tea date with Elsa at the Wenham Tea House. It was an afternoon filled with magic, songs, and of course.... Tea!

Mother's Day 2015

Mother's Day. Whoa. I feel like this past year flew by, and took forever. Hahaha.

We had a wonderful day. First we had a delicious breakfast with the Walsh's. Then it was off to Canobie Lake! The whole state of New Hampshire, and most of Massachusetts had the same idea... so, it was packed. But we had fun.

Maddy got me the best neck pillow ever. Mimi took her shopping, and I guess Maddy just walked around holding the pillow saying... my mother really wants this. Very cute stuff. Ray and Reed got me amazing walking shoes, and I got to spend a little time laying down watching TV. Perfect day.

Best part? My back/hip has felt amazing. Blessed.

I want to thank all of the beautiful moms in my life. My support, and friend Mimi, or as I say... Ma, my kind and kid-spoiler Nana Pamalama, and my sweet-too-good-to-be true Mum Bridgie. I have learned patience, acceptance, and strength from all of you. I love you.
