dressing up!

birthday time

Happy Birthday yesterday to my Ibby girl!

And she had a fun party with some friends.

happy Mother's day!

My husband doesn't like to buy dead things, but humors me on occasion. Pretty pink flowers in my pretty pink room.

Three year old comes in while I'm running on the treadmill, "Mommy, are you pretending to run?" Why yes I am. I'm also pretending to be out of breath and sweaty -- I have a really good imagination.

I finished another blanket!!!  This one is for my loveliest of friends, Miss Fara.  It is another Attic 24 special.  I have been so happy with the kits and the instructions.

These two gorgeous girls did a wonderful job at their dance concert in the dance they choreographed themselves!

just the usual

We had a regular old Saturday today, running some errands and then took the kids to Steak n' Shake.  I was laughing so hard at Archie because he was so so tired, but kept eating... We still think he's adorable.

Sufjan!

Today we had to say goodbye to Charles for the summer so we took him down to St. Louis where he caught a train to Kansas City to sell pesticide.  Fun stuff.  After we dropped him off we went to a yummy Korean restaurant for dinner and then to the Peabody Opera House to see SUFJAN!  He's my fave, for sure!  We had great, I mean completely amazing, seats!  And no one stood up in front of us, score!
