Well, Spring has finally arrived in New England.
Life has been busy with yard work, planting flowers, more yard work, and getting our summer toys (the camper and boat) ready. We've had a pretty warm Spring, some days have felt downright summerish. Ok, I know "summerish" isn't a word, but it's my journal and I'll say it if I want to. A few weeks ago the temps hit 93 degrees, so we took the boat out for a spin on the ocean. Then we pulled the boat up on the beach and let the kids play in the tide pools for awhile. The ocean and beach are my favorite place on earth.... I feel so peaceful there.
Last weekend Sammi made her 1st Communion. I worked the night before (from 7pm to 7am), so there will be no pictures shown here of me. Trust me, it's better that way, lol. Despite my exhaustion, it was a wonderful day. Another sweet milestone that reminds me that life goes by too fast....

Yes, the moments are sweeter when you know it's just so quickly passing. I guess, that depends on the moment, some moments you wish never passed your way at all.
anyway, sweet pictures. I remember her as a toddler with curls. climbing out of cribs and getting into all kinds of hijinks with her brother. :)
time goes sooo quickly. enjoy the boat and the water and the shores the summer....enjoy it all!
Michelle - she looks so pretty!
I need a good e-mail address for you - the one on aol was rejected. Here is my response re: strawberries:
Hi Michelle - I clean, stem the berries and put them on a cookie sheet or any kind of flat surface with a lip and put them in the freezer. After that, I put them in ziplocks. That way they are easy to access a few at a time for smoothies.
have a good one!
