Hello! Well, here we are on the first Friday of MAY! While this month used to be filled with all kinds of activities when the kids were young, it is now much slower, with a bit of preparation for the long summer months. The porch furniture will be hosed down, the flower pots filled, and the deck swept off. Summer days are coming!
The past few days have been blissfully normal. Between unpacking, doing laundry, and going through mail, I managed to sneak in an afternoon nap or two. What else went on these past few days? Well, I got a summer haircut...
and sent the obligatory selfie to Madison. Early morning walks resumed...
And the pups enjoyed some quiet time at home.
And we ate some delicious, cozy food like grilled cheese and tomato soup and homemade apple pie, sent back with us from Steve's sister, Deb. The first night we were home, Madison brought us a delicious dinner. She made chicken legs, homemade macaroni and cheese, and a salad with strawberries, walnuts, and cherry tomatoes. It was so good, and we were so thankful!
That is about all I have today, my friends. This weekend looks to be rainy and cozy here. We have mass on Saturday and will be preparing for a family vacation to Disney on Monday. Yep, we are all going to Disney together! I am so thankful and also excited because, even though I no longer have little children holding my hand or riding in a stroller, I know the magic of Disney makes us all young at heart.
Have a lovely weekend, my friends!
