Mom's Birthday

Well, tomorrow is my Mom's birthday - she would be 66 years old. Ya know, I actually thought it was today - her and my brother's birthdays are a day apart - one the 25th, one the 26 - God knows, I don't think I ever got it right. Regardless, she has been on my mind all day and of course the tears were flowing missing her, wishing I could have been calling her at 8 a.m. to wish her Happy Birthday. It will be 5 years in October she's been gone and not a day goes by that I don't think about her and talk to her.

Happy Birthday, Mom! I love you and I miss you...

Not much else going on here. So glad we are in the summer months and can spend time at the beach or the pool. On the other hand, we are also getting into rainy season, so it's hit or miss if we have rain or sunshine - then of course, Hurricane Season starts on June 1! Fun, fun, fun.

Bailey is getting big! She is starting to scoot around and is just as pleasant as can be. And she continues to look more and more like Justin! lol - Krista said the other day - "I was just the incubator!" Speaking of Krista - she's doing very well in cosmetology school - just a few more months and she'll graduate! It sure is nice having a talented hairdresser for a daughter-in-law! I just love her!

Charlee just gets more smarter and more beautiful! I'm so excited that Justin and Krista got her signed up for VPK, which is a pre-kindergarten school! Hard to believe she will be 5 in December and kindergarten next year. These two little ones are the joy in our lives for sure!

(Mimi went to Rainforest Cafe while I was in Boston and got Charlee this little frog!)

Heather and Alan are doing good. They are enjoying their first Spring/Summer in Florida! I know they try to go to the beach as much as they can or come by our place and go to the pool. I can't tell you how happy I am they are here.


So, that's it for now. I'll try to post a little more - I'm sure I'll have some great pictures next week as Charlee and Bailey are both going to spend the weekend with us and give Justin and Krista a break! I can't wait!

Love,

CherylAnn

A Fabulous Mother's Day!

This is going to be short and sweet! I have had a long week in Boston and then babysitting yesterday and Charlee spent the night - then today Mother's Day!

I was treated to a wonderful day, starting with Dave making me an absolutely delicious omelette breakfast!! Charlee and I hung out in our PJs and watched the Disney movie Bolt - which is a great movie if you haven't seen it - it is soooo cute! Then the "kids" all came over and we spent a few hours at the pool and came home to a fabulous Turkey dinner which Dave cooked! I really can't say anymore about it - it was FABULOUS!!

Here is a picture Dave took of me and all my "Kids!!"

Oh - almost forgot - I just had to add this picture - This to me is what it's about - especially as a Mimi"!!
