Day Sixty Six 2013

Busted!

Spring Break lunch today at my brother Ken’s new digs with sisters, nieces, nephews and hubby. Ken moved back to town recently, which means we get to spend more time together. He has decorated his home with several of his son Ian’s sculptures, including this bust Ian fashioned after his dad. The resemblance is spot on, don’t you think? (minus the mustache of course)

Here’s another take with the bust stylin in niece Sarah’s hat and sister Jane’s glasses. Can you say Facebook profile picture?

Day Sixty Five 2013

I used to be Snow White, but I drifted.

I think we’ve had more snow days in March than we’ve had the entire winter. [this makes me think of the first moon landing for some reason ~ one small step]

Lunch at Ocha today with daughter Holly, grandson Knox, daughter Kelly and hubby Neil.

Knox and his mom went back home today after spending the last several days with us. Miss you guys!

Day Sixty Four 2013

Fed the birds. They should enjoy the seeds and peanut butter tomorrow when the weather is back to winter again.

Fed the humans. Homemade chili (although there was nothing chilly about it) was tasty comfort food on a cold, windy, wet winter’s night.

Day Sixty Three 2013

spring break!

It’s spring break for grand daughter Shelby and grandson Elijah. They spent the weekend with us, and they hung out with us today. iPad mini rules! Shelby has become addicted to Pinterest thanks to Aunt Kelly.

The Grandpeeps Knox, Shelby, and Elijah.

The snow melted in this fifty degree weather today ~ a good day to bounce on the trampoline. Superman had major static hair going on.

Sometimes when you’re small, you get bowled over by the big red ball while playing with cousins on the trampoline.

Downward Facing Dawg. Don’t you love Shelby’s hot pink knee socks?

We never get too old for bubbles. Shelby wanted to try out my ‘big’ camera and got some nice shots …

… like this one …

… and this one ~ a perfect bubble ~ and you can see Shelby’s reflection in the bubble ~ very cool shot, Shelby!

And she snapped some nice ones of cousin Knox … like this one …

… and this one. She loves photography and has a good eye.

They got in some jumping when Knox wasn’t on the trampoline.

Good times Monday! I hope the kids (and teachers) have more spring weather during the break. Today felt so good. I haven’t missed the snow now that it’s gone.

Day Sixty Two 2013

Peeps at Poet’s On The Square coffeehouse. From left: grandson Knox, hubby Neil, daughter Kelly, niece Julia, grand daughter Shelby, sister Jane, niece Sarah, and grandson Elijah. We don’t get to gather here very often, but when we do, we have loads of fun. And yummy coffee and frozen goodies. Hope we get to do this again soon.
