A weekend to remember

 



Verne and Abby had a sleepover at my house!

It’s the first time since April and we had so much fun!

We walked to the beach around the corner!


We went school shopping for Verne. He will be in pre-school 3 mornings starting in September.

He asked for a belt to hold his pants up.  He told me he’s never had a belt before.

He was pretty darn excited about it.


Abby got a new hoodie.


We built a fort….well Verne and my husband (they call him Hey-Joe) built the fort but Verne was the host with the most when he invited me and Abby in to color, eat apples, and read a book.

I was actually trying to sneak a little nap in..


We walked out to Fort Sewall 

And on Sunday morning…even though Henri turned out to be not a hurricane

We used umbrellas to walk to the Muffin Man and get some pancakes for breakfast. 



We did a lot of fun things so some of us got a nap in when they could…




Abby while Verne was watching a TV show about model trains. He was captivated…She. Was. Not.


Verne fell asleep for a short time on the ride home. 

Which he almost never does anymore…we played hard!

First Snow

  Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter, Bonnie. She brings me so much joy. My first snow day of the year! I work at a Montessori school and we are getting our first big snow storm of the year so.... SNOW DAY!!  I made my own hummus last weekend. It was delicious. I added a little bit of turmeric along with the chickpeas, lemon, tahini, and garlic.  I plan on eating a more plant based diet this year. It's only been a week and I'm already feeling better. I did eat two slices of mushroom pizza last night and ended up having heartburn so it will be a good long time before I eat dairy again.  Each month one of our families brings in a bouquet of flowers.  We cut most of the stems off and place them on a tray which we place on the children's table.  We place another tray with a very small pitcher and a few very small bud vases.  The child fills up the pitcher using water from the bathroom sink, brings it back to the table and pours the water in a bud vase of their choosing.

Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

Image
  My daughter, Hannah's house is just so pretty. It's a large, Victorian era duplex with beautiful light. Some of the windows have been replaced but there are a few old leaded windows that are old and beautiful and the light is so soft that I am always taking pictures. This is an sweet old table that she picked up in her travels. She put some vintage Christmas ornaments in a terra cotta pot and next to that is a lemon tree plant. The whole thing sits under her kitchen windows. So pretty. My husband and I went to her house on Christmas morning. She served us delicious French toast and mimosas. ~  A friend of mine flew over Marblehead on her way home from vacation and had the wherewithal to take a photo.  It made me think of Oh Little Town of Bethlehem.  This year I was able to purchase a poinsettia through my church in honor of my mother. It was comforting to know that she was represented during the Christmas Eve Mass. I had a chance to rearrange the living room a little bit. I
