Remembering, Day 137



Our city's fallen heroes, all lost in the line of duty over the last year and a half. I took this photo a couple of months ago and as we approach Memorial Day here in our country, it made me think of these police officers.

Mellow Yellow, Days 135 and 136



Even though I had gone to the Atlantic Coast yesterday, because of the horrendously thick fog that prevented me from even SEEING the ocean even though our hotel overlooked the ocean, I took not one photo.

But, I did see a really interesting pair of socks and I also captured a moment of team bonding just before an ultimate frisbee game today.

Getaway, Day 134


Yes, I took lots of photos of weeds the other day. But, I have to admit that when you get up close and personal with them, they are really not all that bad.

I promise I will be back to visit my fellow bloggers tomorrow. I am heading out for an evening to "chillax" (as my kids like to call it)with my sister. Call it bonding time or call it a getaway, either way we get to hang out with each other and stay overnight in a hotel and probably eat food - who could go wrong with that!

See you all tomorrow!

I know my numbering is off. I missed yesterday's post as I was out for the evening then too...with my sister! She's really ruining my blogging life - I will have to let her know that.

Obliging Mom, Day 133


In addition to the promise to help clean the house, along with a box decaf K-Cups for my Keurig Coffee Maker, my son allowed me to photograph him on Mother's Day. Although I felt his coloring was a little off (very pale), all in all, I think it turned out okay and it only involved 4.73 minutes of his time.

My daughter, who very willingly allows me to photograph her anytime I want to, was knee deep in homework that evening. I just don't want anyone to think I am neglecting my other child.

My Little World, Day 131 and Day 132



I'm in this little world....somewhere....




Even a weed can turn out to be pretty sometimes.

Boat House Row, Day 130



This little "village" looking area is actually Boat House Row in Philadelphia. I cannot believe this came out as clear as it did as we are driving at about
45-50 mph.

Ruby Reads/Dad Vail Regatta, Days 128 and 129



My husband and I went to our first Dad Vail Regatta today. It was unbelievably exciting. You could just feel the excitement in the air and the weather was also perfect - thank goodness our run on rain had ended yesterday.






She may still be doing her business all over the kitchen floor, but Ruby does enjoy her daily newspaper!
