will be so glad...

i can hardly wait for all this to be gone.

gone, gone, GONE. come on, summer!

just love green...

ok, becky is going to say, "I TOLD YOU SO!"

i saw this bag at target. and i loved it. and i left it.
then i went back today and i got it.

becky says i do this all the time with shoes...and she's right. but when i wait to make a purchase, i find that i really love the item and i really use the item. that's my defense. (smile.)

and better yet...this beauty is going to NYC with me next weekend!!!

more to come...

my sister, RN...

my sister graduated from nursing school tonight, top of her class...i am so proud of her!!!

i could never do what she just did...amazing...

and her peers chose her to give the commencement speech, very cool!

watch out, there's a new RN in the house!

what a find...

look at this awesome old swivel stool i happened upon today as i browsed a second-hand store...

it will be so cute in my classroom...

question...to paint or not to paint?...and what color?

a quarter in review...

time to time travel...

in april, we had our first annual "peeps in the pit" party...we had plenty to burn! and they actually made really good s'mores!

at the end of march we visited chad and the girls in n.c. for a few days...i let my children go out in a kayak, what was i thinking??? (i could barely watch.)

easter came in april...the only photo i got.

in march, mary e had a lead role in her school musical...so proud! she loves to sing...

and in february, it snow-ow-owed, right here in dixie!!! it hasn't snowed since january 2000...mary e was 5 months old! this is the first snow she (and jacob) remember seeing.

can you believe that these are pretty much ALL the photos i have taken in 2010??? i think my 365 photo project last year drained me. this year, i'm trying more to just enjoy the moment...

want to see...
