His mom always told me what a perfect baby he was. Well he sure was cute!
Normally he’s up every morning making breakfast for everyone –bacon, eggs, ham, the works!

Happy...

Today was our 24 year wedding anniversary and Tim had a big surprise planned for me. It was a spa day! I got a Swedish massage, a European facial, a manicure and pedicure, lunch and my hair done. I am so totally pampered!

I started a Daybook post yesterday but didn’t get it finished. I tried to edit and post it today but it won’t let me –it keeps going to a blank screen. No idea why so I am posting this instead.
Life’s been busy. Well it’s always busy but with RCIA and Easter it’s been busier than usual. The planners are selling well and that keeps me busy too –of course that’s a good thing!
I am...
