ICING ON THE CAKE
WITH A CHERRY ON TOP

Some of you who see me on facebook know that I had a wonderful Mother's Day. It started Saturday evening; dinner with my daughter and favorite son-in-law, Alyse and Robert. Sunday I awoke with a very nice card from the boys (Mike, Ritz and JoJo). After church we headed to Salem to have dinner with Mike's sister, brother-in-law, mom and dad; Chinese food at Lum Yiens. We visited with all of them for a while before heading back to Lake Oswego to have dinner with my mom and dad at the new restaurant, Lake Oswego Grill. We had been there previously with friends and enjoyed it as much the second time (for those of you living in the Portland area it is located in the former Chili's). Then we headed home for a relaxing evening; we needed to get up early to begin our week. When I arrived home from work(s) I went to the mail box and got "ICING ON THE CAKE WITH A CHERRY ON TOP."


Thank you all for a wonderful day. I am blessed and continue to count my many blessings.

FOR ALL YOU MOTHERS
(and others)

If you would like a good laugh watch this three minute video.

You will all be able to relate….

You all have one, know one, or live with one.

TO ALL MOMS; SOON TO BE MOMS; or LONGING TO BE MOMS

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

My boss sent me this email a few weeks ago and I put it aside for sharing this weekend. It was titled "Moms come in all sizes".

Have a wonderful time Sunday celebrating your Mother's Day.

Some of you may have already seen this child in other videos; I thought this was too cute to not pass along. I also was able to figure out how to upload it from YouTube (we will see if it worked).

I admit, I had to try a second time.

Do not get too excited......

I am not sure where I am finding the time to blog again in less than a week; might have something to do with the fact that Michael is buried in tax preparation. During his time away into the late evenings and early morning I have had time to do a little digi scrap booking. With my two puppies at my feet I am able to enjoy my time as a "tax widow".

Here is a short video of the beach trip I took with friends in November 2008, and March 2009. As you will see I still have some things to touch up. (I need to find a day that I can go to Michelle's house and get a lesson on Elements 7)

I Sure did have a great time with all of you! Looking forward to October or November 2009.
