Where’s the pot of gold?

Yesterday (Sunday), we drove to Greensboro. We had a fun-filled afternoon with some time in the pool, good food and new toys – who can ask for more? The bonus was a beautiful rainbow on the way home. Its not often that you see the full rainbow and by the time this one matured (if…

Thank goodness its Sunday!

The cutest idea I have seen lately is a blogger who recollects her favorite verses (or timely verses) every Sunday. I hope she doesn’t mind that I copied her – but its such an awesome way to start (or end) the week – depending on how you view your calendar. I chose today’s verse because…

The many faces of Cailee

Ok well its really just one expression, but I think it is hilarious and I was having too much fun invoking it. I’ve been told that I used to make a similar expression – I won’t admit to it though.

Our weekend… pictorially

I’ll include some captions, of course, but pictures are kinda my thing right now. Ask JJ and Cailee (and Lola if she could do something other than bark), they are already sick of the new camera I think. Mostly because mom is trying to figure out what the heck she is doing – its been…

Bull moon [bike] ride

So we had a busy Saturday (nothing atypical there), with an early appt. at the hair salon and an afternoon of errands and running around. We capped the evening off with pizza at mellow mushroom with Nancy and a bike ride around Durham – well JJ participated, unofficially sponsored by Saab (of course) and Nancy,…

ohh look what I got (getting)…

Ok, so I took everyone’s advice (coincidentally, I asked for opinions on a camera on twitter, had one already picked out – just needed a little convincing and every single response – ok there were only three – indicated the same camera – how’s that for help!) and ordered the Nikon D5000. Hopefully, you’ll see…

Beating the heat

We had a welcome break from the heat last week and I suppose that spoiled us – but now the sun and humidity are right back at it again – making it nearly unbearable to spend a few minutes outside. This is tough on both Cailee and mommy as Cailee would like nothing better than…
