The Snuggie

Taylor & Ruth are the best. They got me the snuggie for my birthday. I actually screamed with happiness when I ripped open the wrapping and saw the snuggie waiting for me! One weekend when I was visiting, we got to talking about the "As Seen on TV" products. I mentioned how I wanted a snuggie. The temperature at my house is never what I would call "comfortable", so I'm always curled up on the couch with a blanket (even in the dead of summer). When I was recovering from back surgery, I was watching a lot of late night TV and when I would need to change the channel, I would always have to uncover, channel surf, then recover. And, I would always see the commercial and thought that it was the perfect solution to my situation.

Ruth & Taylor, thank you so much for my snuggie! It is the perfect gift.

A day at the park

Yesterday was such a gorgeous day, that Meg and I packed up our lunch and headed to the park for a picnic. Meg helped me pack the cooler from the looks of it she thought we were going to stay at the park for a few days. The weather was perfect. The sun was shining and there was a slight breeze. There was actually a chill in the air and at one point, Meg curled up under our second blanket. She said she was going to take a nap. Of course, that didn't happen.

Wordless Wednesday

Happy St. Patty's Day

Such a cheesy pose and smile! Meg, this is why I love you!

Sunday at Nina's

Sunday, we had lunch at Nina's. As usual, she cooked entirely too much. It had been a long time since we saw her. When we got there, Meg talked Nina into dressing like her. They were both wearing black pants, black shirts and pink tops. They looked so adorable. Of course, I had to take pictures of the girls dressed the same.

A day at the park

When Megan and I got back from SA on Sunday, it was an absolutely beautiful day. So, we packed up Meg's golf clubs, soccer ball, a blanket and a few snacks to head to the park. Meg hit a few balls, kicked the soccer ball around a little, and had a blast playing on the playground.

I am definitely looking forward to more days like this so we can spend time outdoors. Meg loves being outside and playing at the park. I love to watch her interact with the other children. This girl has never met a stranger and is friends with everyone.

Ruth & Taylor's Baby Shower

On March 7, I had the honor of hosting a baby shower for Ruth & Taylor, along with five other girls. We had such an amazing time. The shower was a blast. Almost everyone that was invited showed up. Poor Ruth had an upper respiratory infection, so was feeling pretty horrible. However, she was an absolute trooper and never complained once about being sick.

Of course, she was absolutely beautiful. Pregnancy is definitely agreeing with her. When Ruth arrived at mom and dad's house for the shower, she walked in, took one look at the house and started crying. Ruth is due at the end of April. We are all excited about meeting Luke. He is already so loved by everyone.
