It is with real excitement to announce that I have joined the new and improved "Wordpress" for my blog. I have been able to import all past posts from blogger and look forward to a much more user friendly site to continue with "A day in my life...."
Please check in now on the new site. There is already a new post. Your day would not be the same without the humor of our life....
I look forward to continue sharing our hilarious daily adventures.
Evening walks are the best.... I assure you they are not for exercise. Thirty minutes with this crew and we are lucky to make it around the small block. It is good, they enjoy the simple things that they pass and stop to ask about everything in their own little language!
We did not get past two houses before a break was needed on the lovely golf course grass! Truthfully, who would not love to take a rest in such cozy soft grass!
She would be more family to me than even a friend. My Mom, Juliette and I had the best evening catching up with Elizabeth and her Mom Mary Ann. Oh the fun and the memories with these special ladies! Drive-bys past the "Hot N Now" and other shenanigans talked about make getting together so special!
I tell Mom every year.... how did you have me at such an amazing time of the year. As we prepared for the 4th of July today and the annual tradition of my birthday celebration and ribs at Tessa's house on this day that same thought came back to me again. This 4th was wonderful.
We had a whole new tradition to begin this year. We started a garden. Doh came over first thing with Juliette today and the whole family under the guidance of Dan tilled, planted and watered the garden. It was actually quite exciting. We planted a tomato plant, a Columbian spinach, 4 jack o lantern pumpkins, 4 ornate very old style pumpkins and a red pepper bush. Can't wait to see what we get!
It was a birthday week like no other! It was a big year after all. I told Don all I wanted for my birthday was a beach house for my girlfriends and me. I found a beautiful house on Seabrook and arranged individual time with each of my four closest girls in my life - Whitney a dear friend from Wofford, Susan my best friend from high school, Amy McCollum my best friend from Wofford and my Mom!
I could not have asked for any other more perfect week. It was so special and so relaxing that I felt like a new woman. Matter of fact I still am riding the wave of an utter relaxed feeling inside.
I was out at the beach from a Friday until Thursday morning with just my girlfriends. Don brought the kids out and joined us. I do have to say that there was a few minutes of shell shock when the crew arrived. One jumped out of one side of the car, one on the other, one came from the front sear and the other jumped out from the back of the truck. All I could do for a minute was just look and laugh in amazement. Six days with the girls solo was quite a nice break. Took me a few minutes to remember the loudness, the love and the laughter that I had been away from.
