Another birthday? Maybe a vacation?

A couple of weeks ago I traveled to visit this one:

She is a bit of a planner and had my vacation planned out for me.

No itinerary but definitely a specific outline.

More crafting

There was alot of loafing around squeezed into that outline...

5 pounds heavier, I came home having covered all of those... I want to say that was a success.

We started with this:

Banana Pudding Cupcakes... Success!!

 Then I made this:

My sister made the wool applique and I pieced the background.

It has another border but I didn't get a pic. You can see it here though: Pumpkin Butter

What else.. Ah, we made this one evening:

Garlic Pesto Chicken... Another Success!!

We watched ALOT of this:

While we did some of this:

To wrap up the few days off we had taken, we had one of these:

 

At a great tapas bar in Nashua, NH called Stella Blu

Definitely a wonderful time was had.

I've been home for only a week but I already miss the kids.

Can you believe that this little lady turns 25 today?

She will always look like this to me.

I count my blessings everyday and thank the lord for letting me be her mother.

Happy Birthday, Nyshma!
