I still can't believe it!




When we moved to this town, almost 6 years ago, I met Hannah. She's the daughter of my good friend Amy Leckinger. When we met her, Hannah was 6 years old, just about Cesar's age. They were friends for several years, and then Cesar became a weird teenager (what can I say! I love the kid, but he's a Weirdan!). Well, last Thursday we had to go out with Cesar, and who came to look after Coco and Connor??? Hannah, of course!!!! Isn't she such a beautiful young lady? She brought Matthew with her, because of course, he is Coco's best friend forever. They made matching best friends forever necklaces, and we were so very happy to see what a responsible nice girl Hannah is.

Not much happening around here. Just plenty of resting time after a very busy week!
My sister asked me to post these pictures of the cakes from Joe and Lynn's weeding last week. They had small cakes on each table, each one different design, and on their table (a table for two), they had the cake with the groom and bride...

Hey Paula...YAY! YAY! you are posting more often! That'll make your adoring fan's like MEEEE happy! :o)

Wierdan? Is that an American term? Hahaha! teenage years are YUK for even the most resilient of kids...especially boys, I feel for them. Did he get on OK with Hannah?

I love that Coco & Matthew are friends...what is their age gap again??? Very cute!!!

I am so blown away by that cake, it is beautiful....1 on each table...WOW! someone had lots of love to share....or $'s for that matter. Has anyone brought themselves to cut & eat some yet??

HUGS & KISSES to you & your lovely brood!!!

Still ALIVE...

... but swamped with fabrics and paint. It's kind of funny, I ordered some fabric online from Joann, and then when it arrived, I really didn't like it. See, I'm making new curtains for the back door (it's one of those sliding doors and we used to have blinds there), new pillow covers (because we got new slipcovers for the couches) and I'm re-upholstering the dinning room chairs. And so, I ordered different fabrics that I thought would match. Very orangy-yellowish, those are the colors we chose for staging the house. Anyways, when I saw the fabric, I was very tempted to return it, but instead, I started the first chair today... And I think it looks AWESOME!!! I just finished cutting all the fabric for the back of the chairs, tomorrow I'll be busy sewing. Can't wait to see the first one finished. I'm actually getting EXCITED! Bought a couple of lamp shades, too, and I'm almost done painting the tables black (coffee and end tables). Of course, the kids ...

Happy birthday, USA!!!

We will be having a totally lazy 4 th of July. Brian just came back from his trip last night, and I think he must be needing a lot of rest. He's loving his new job, but since he really is very good at "fixing" accounts, every time he fixes one and he's starting to enjoy the fruits of his work, another one gets "broken", so he has to go in and fix that one as well. It's nice that he gets such a good reputation in his industry, and it's great that he gets to know so many new people, because it's always good to have such a network of contacts, but it's really exhausting. Anyways, a few days ago I went to buy a watermelon, because we all are fans (big time!). We come home, our mouths watering, and we open it to this... WHAT??? Cesar was brave enough to try it, but I just cannot bring myself to eat some yellow watermelon flesh. It does taste the same, but I just couldn't have more than a bite or two. I'll have to give it a try again toda...

A few weeks ago, after work, I heard Brian scolding Cesar. (If you don't know it, Brian and I work from home, so my office is just a few steps from the kitchen, so i can hear pretty well) He was starting to sound VERY unhappy, especially because Cesar wouldn't own up to his mistake. OUCH! So, here I come into the kitchen and start listening in: BRIAN: "What do you mean you didn't take them? Are you hording them? Did you hide them?" CESAR: "Brian, I didn't take them, really" BRIAN: "What do you mean you didn't take them? Coco and Connor can't reach them. Mom wouldn't take them, and they did NOT grow legs". ME: "What are you guys talking about?" BRIAN: "It's just that we had the gumballs' container almost to the middle this morning, and now, there's barely one layer of them. The only one who could have done it is Cesar, and he won't even tell the truth!" ME: "Eh... mmmhhhh ... did we have t...
