Backyard Moment

Heading Home

Cake

The last time I made cupcakes, I made a batch of egg free ones for my little allergic boy. I wrapped them all separately and put them in the freezer, planning to take one out and frost it for him when I made cakes for other occasions, so he wouldn't be left out. He wasn't interested in the the first one I offered him about 6 weeks ago, but this morning was a different story. I think the chocolate frosting helped.

It just made me so darned happy to see him enjoy that cupcake!

Triumphant

It's all about attitude

And she has it. In spades.

Purge

It has begun. The packers will be here in less than 2 weeks. Time to get rid of all the crap.

Sigh

I could have sworn I took a photo of the girls on their way to summer camp.

Independence Day

Leaving Day

You'll notice that the sun is out. I couldn't bring myself to photograph how beautiful the ocean was. The big kids played on the beach and swam in the surf while I packed and loaded the car. At least they got to enjoy the last morning. It was a lovely house and fantastic location. Maybe next year the weather will cooperate and the littlest member of our family will be a better vacation participant.

Shopping Day

Trying to decide on a dress for a friend's wedding this month. I was actually shopping by myself and needed more than the mirror. It was quite an effective way of obtaining a different perspective.

Oh, and I didn't feel bad about spending a vacation day at the mall. It coincided with a massive thunderstorm and torrential rain.
