There's a New Six Year Old in the House!! . . .


Waiting for the crowd to arrive with brother number three.




Our sweet and sassy baby girl turns six today!!  WHAAAAT??? We've been counting down the days since we turned our Walking Dead calendar to the month of May!!  It's been a loooooong 17 days!!!  : )  Megan said she wanted a rainbow themed bowling party so that is what she got on Saturday.  After all, it's not every day that a girl turns six you know!!

Wouldn't you love to know what these girlies were giggling about??  LOL!!  I love that Megan's friend Genevieve came to the bowling party in her Halloween costume!!  These new friends of Megan's are such a sweet bunch.  I'm so happy that she's fitting right in with them.  : )

These kids are adorable!!  Megan has been so lucky to have such a great bunch of kids in her kindergarten class.  The parents are all  friendly too.  It was nice to be able to get to know some of them better at the party. 

Of course Megan's bff Cybele came and fit right in with everyone.  We hadn't seen Cybele and her mom/my friend Ophie in a couple of months.  It's just so crazy how quickly the time goes.


Trevor came for some bowling and pizza.  The boys were all very impressed that Megan had two big brothers at her party.  Brother number one is currently vacationing in Mexico.  Tough life, huh??

My love.

Meg's friend Colin getting the shake down.  I laugh every time I look at this!!!




All I can say is these kids are a bunch of characters.  Just look at those faces!!  Tonight we're going to our local diner with family as per Megan's request.  She's in love with one of the waitresses there and can't wait to tell her it's her birthday.  Thursday night we head down the mountain to have dinner with my father in law and Uncle Tom (my brother in law from my first marriage).  They've been in Ireland for the last two weeks and come home tomorrow.  The celebrating will continue throughout the week.  Such a lucky little girl to have so many people that love her.  She truly is our gift from above.  : )

Party Time with a Side Order of Letting Go . . .

It's finally here!!  The day of Meggie's big birthday celebration with her classmates!!!  Hurray!!!  Although we're now going to have to find something else to threaten taking away from her.  LOL!!  We have approximately 20 five year olds headed this way at noon.

Drawing in the window.

The bouncy castle is ready.  The goodie bags are ready.  The cupcakes are baked.  Just need to be frosted.  The outfit she wants to wear today is spinning in the dryer.  I've had a burst of energy this week and have been up until almost 1 am every night.  So unlike me!!!  I'm going with it though.  I get more accomplished at the end of the day then I do in the morning.  This is something that I've always struggled with accepting about me. 


So many of my friends are up and out running errands and getting things done in the morning.  Except for rare occasions, that's not me.  I've been setting my intention for either accepting things about myself that I don't necessarily like or changing those things that I don't necessarily like.  I've thrown in the towel and accepted this about me.  Not fully yet but moving in the right direction and that's good enough for me right now.  : )


There have been lots of thoughts and ideas floating around in my mind lately.  More than usual.  The art of letting go is something that usually comes pretty easily for me but lately it hasn't been.  Our move has been a very large question mark in my mind.  Our house is still not on the market.  The market in Cornwall-on-Hudson really doesn't have anything conducive to our wants/needs.  The house that I fell in love with that was pretty much my dream house is now officially sold.  I knew it was going into contract but in the back of my mind I still had a little glimmer of hope.  In my heart, I know that everything is falling into place for the perfect house for us and for our current home to be the perfect house for the next family that lives here.  : )


I just noticed she has marker on her nose!!  : )
