Wait, Summer is here??

I guess it is true when they say the older you get, the faster time flies.  I feel like it was just Mother's Day and now we are welcoming Summer!  Need to catch up on a few happenings:

Mother's Day was just delightful.  I cooked for Allison's staff, as I do every Mother's Day.

Then we were off to Michelle's for a wonderful afternoon.  The kids chipped in and presented me with a gift certificate to my favorite nursery.  When I look at all the flowers in front of my house, I am reminded of the love from my children.

My cousins and friends came for a visit one weekend.  We have been vacationing with them annually for 9 years.  This year, we had to cancel due to Mike's illness.  Our vacation buddies were so sweet as they brought along "Flat Angela" and "Flat Mike" and made us a photo album of all our adventures!  Such a lovely gesture.

Our beautiful Ava made her First Communion.  Ally is on the left, Ava on the right, wearing her sister's dress.  Where does the time go?

 

 

We celebrated Bobby's First Birthday in his house in grand style, as only this family can - a "Fiesta!"

 

 



 

This past Sunday we celebrated Father's Day.  Once again, Michelle hosted the gang: good food, good time....  The kids presented Mr. Wonderful with a "Weekend in Atlantic City and dinner at Carmines!"  I think we will schedule that for September and avoid the summer crowds.  Such a nice trip to look forward to...

 

Mike continues to heal and we all continue to count our blessings. 

 

"Here's to Summer and all the memories that this family will create!!"
