It's me, Charity

 Late, very late, last fall I planted tulips in my random weird corner plot in my front yard. I planted an entire bag of them, and wondered if any would come up. Miraculously some have! I was beyond excited to see flowers growing and blooming!!  I took these pictures on Friday and I'm sure my neighbors thought I was weird for taking pictures of my three flowers but I did not care!  I was really glad I got pictures of this pretty blood orange tulip, since I woke up Saturday morning and looked outside and some stupid animal had destroyed it!!! ARRRRGGHHHHHHHH!!! I saw the petals laying so sadly on the ground and I nearly cried.  I'm having a massive Animal Planet issue in my backyard, and apparently my front yard as well. I have a huge groundhog who thinks he owns the backyard and under my shed and an entire colony of rabbits. Yes, I'm thrilled. *sarcasm*  Now that I'm a homeowner I am finding that weekends are a little different than they used ...

Five years ago this October I spent the evening in the maternity ward of St E. watching Greys Anatomy with Jboz as we waited for Emboz to push out Madi so we could meet her and go to bed! #workinggirls Ever since that night Jboz and her family have become some of my favorite people on earth! Someone asked me at her Baby Shower if I was related to her, I said, Well, basically. ha!  They couldn't get rid of me if they tried :) Happy to do life with these peeps! Now it is Jboz's turn to have a baby and we are anxiously awaiting another fun night at St. E.  We're coming for your Sharon!! (hopefully the nurses have not posted our pictures in a do not let inside memo!) So a few weekends ago we all gathered at Emboz's home to have a baby shower for Jboz and her sweet little baby boy! I was pretty excited to see Bunny (above) we are grocery shopping partners.   Basically we terrorize our town whenever we are together. :)  Can you see a third person in ...

 So this was Addie's second trip to my house for a girls lunch. The first lunch she slept all the way through, so no good pics were taken.  This time her Momma and Charity were having such a lively chat over lunch that we woke her up! I was happy to see those little eyes! She is always sleeping when I am holding her!  I was not happy to see how grown up she looks. I mean seriously, sitting up and holding her head up like a big girl? NOT OK.  Momma and daughter. Oh man, just got a little teary eyed just typing that!  3 people, 1 camera, all of us looking in different directions. Audra is the only one who was doing it right! I got a new camera, which is awesome and I love it! One of the great things about it is that it has a selfie screen on front so you can pose yourself well before taking the shot. I'm still having a problem looking at the screen instead of the center of the camera! So be prepared to see more pics like this with me looki...
