2 December



I spent last Friday afternoon with sweet baby Verne.

We had a wonderful time together....



He smiles now....

and laughs when I talk to him...


It was such a heartwarming experience

to watch my daughter and my son in law creating their little family

They are so cute all together



 I got my house mostly decorated for the season.

We still have the lights to put out on the porch

but it's been rather windy and wet for that this week.



We had the boys over Thanksgiving weekend

We went to Joey's hockey game on Sunday

He won.




I love working in Beacon Hill in Boston.

This is a little shoppe on the corner

that I often walk past as I make my way around Beacon Hill.

    Babes grow quickly, don't they?! I know you are enjoying Verne. I think working in Beacon Hill would be wonderful ... so many places to see. I'm afraid I'd be "on break" all the time!!!! Happy Friday!

    You daughter and her family are precious!! the baby is getting so big so fast! It must be so much fun for you. I love Beacon Hill and can't wait to get back there!! My youngest is just about done with her essay for Boston College.....we are holding our breath wondering where she will be going in the fall!!

    Have a wonderfully restful weekend enjoying all the things this holiday season brings.

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
