Meet Dory

This is the newest addition to our family. She will come home to us in about a month. I can't sleep!

Grand Ballet

It is amazing to watch this little lady growing up.  We delight in her everyday. It is the best to be her Nonni.

Party Season

The first party of the season is always darling husband's birthday.  This year is extra special as we celebrated his 60th birthday with 80 dear friends & family members.  What fun we had.  So much love and care in planning his special party day. It rained for the full week of the party, just a bit unnerving for a hostess.  The morning of the party, out came the sun. Perfect!

Happy Birthday Darling

Easter Sunday

He is Risen.....He is indeed.  I just love that greeting!  Happy Easter

Oranges, Tutus and Egg dying

Today we enjoyed dying eggs with Baby. She loved mixing colors over and over.  By the time we were done they were all sort of the same color which does not have a name to date.

Happy Easter to all....

A Beautiful Morning

Spring is here and it just could not be any prettier outside.  I planted lovely ranunculas, johnny-jump-ups, dahlias and geraniums in the front border.  We will have rain again this weekend so I need to finish planting the front beds tomorrow. Carpets are set to be cleaned, dog has been to the groomer and Spring is in the air.....lovely.

Oh, the hope of Spring....
