I would just like to boast that the last five days of my life have been absolutely wonderful! I had some fabulous days at work, and got to spend a ton of time with my family. It really does not get any better than that. Well, if Eddie Vedder knocked on my door and sang me a song, that would almost be better.
My oldest turned nine and we had a little family party for her. It was very loud in my house, but I love that everyone was able to come. We even skyped with my sister in Seattle. That made my mom very happy!
My husband had a 4 day weekend. I have not spent that much time with him in forever. Yesterday he cooked shrimp and chicken kabobs and holy moly were they yummy!
I think the best part was watching my girls come home on the bus for the first time. What a parent moment for me!
Here are some pictures to enjoy from the past few days!
Last, but certainly not least, this girl had to go for a morning drive around the backyard before she went to school today. She told me that this was going to be her morning routine.
Never a dull moment at The House of Kells.


I know how much you enjoyed that! How wonderful for your family and the memories too!
It was such a great and relaxing day!
