Mom-time

Yesterday my mom and I went to see Wicked, which was wonderful. Then out to eat for crab legs in all their buttery glory, and home to drink wine and girl talk and do all things cozy and comfortable. She spent the night and we woke up to make breakfast in our PJs and drink coffee on the porch and enjoy my beautiful gardens.

...and now its back to the farm to peel wallpaper and pick up after someone else's dogs and think about all the work that needs to be done before it too can be cozy and comfortable. Because despite all the painting and cleaning and hard work we've already done, we've been moved to the opposite side of the house to do it all over again.

A little love...and a whole lotta cuteness

There is nothing better than being at home.

If only everyone could be in love from age 14.

The farm is the most peaceful place on earth.

Where you can meet your first fish...

And completely enjoy the great outdoors!

I loved my weekend at home. There is nothing better than puppies and babies....except of course enjoying them while also enjoying a glass of wine and the fact that my thesis is DONE!

Finally got to meet baby Miles, and spend some quality time with the family, and stop the fun for a minute to say "Cheese" (do you like grilled cheese?) with Aidan.....and yes I do.

Grandma gets a little lovin' from wide

awake Miles, (who despite the shirt

proclaiming a "crabby" baby,

is not even close to crabby,

only adoreable.)

I can't imagine a more perfect weekend..... and for a moment, while I download the rest of my pictures onto my laptop, I can pretend that I don't have to go to class or to work, I would like to imagine my only responsibilities being sitting by a fire, making s'mores.
