Taryn's Shower

We had a lovely shower for Tarbear. Here are some of my favorite pics! Her colors were royal purple and green. Judging from her lovely gifts I bet she is whipping up scones and fish and chips for Dave right this very moment.

These cookies not only looked beautiful but they tasted amazing. There were all different shades of purple, white and green.

Tar had a crew of helpers with her gifts.

Wouldn't be a "Tracy" shower without some Waterford!

Not only does she know her way around a hospital floor but she also has mad notekeeping skills.

The groom's family

Mom and daughter

Delaney and Ben...So Sweet!

I love how my aunt is looking on in the background.

So happy for the bride!

Can you see the resemblance? :)

My Aunt Margaret, Dad's cousin Kathy, and Aunt Mary. When they were little they shared a home between two families. I forget the number of children between the two families...I want to say over 12 at least.

Sisters!

May Visit

We had a blast visiting with Erin, Bob and the kids. It's been awhile since I've seen Nathan and Vivian. They are growing up so quickly. Jack and Lily played so nicely with them. Here are some pictures that the talented Mrs. May sent my way. I love getting photos from her! I wish I could make some of them bigger. Lily was particularly smitten with "Naphan." They also loved when Erin brought cake pops from Starbucks. Hopefully we can all get together again soon.

Congratulations!

They're dropping like flies!

Matt and Lacey got engaged this week. We're so excited and happy for them. It will be a wedding extravaganza next year. I just saw a picture of Lacey's ring and told Matt that Bloomberg is paying him too much. Haha. It's beautiful. Wishing you both a happy engagement. Enjoy it!

Kids Say The Darndest Things

Kids really do say the darndest things. I love some of the things that come out of Jack's mouth. The other day he told me he had the quiet hiccups and that I should call them the quiccups. And then one day he mentioned how his school was in a Church building so we should probably call it a Chool. Yesterday we were leaving a party and he said, "Dad, I really like playing al fresco." Dave must have told him last week that when you dine outside you can say you're dining al fresco. Always makes me smile!

I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles...

Bubbles never get old around here. These are from a few weeks ago:

The Countdown Has Officially Begun

When Toni and Dave were here we all went out for a celebratory engagement dinner. We ended up going to Tapas which was amazing. The food was wonderful and the atmosphere was perfect. This is the only picture I managed to get that night. The countdown is on.

TGIF

Hope you all have a relaxing weekend!
