to say my dad is pretty awesome is an understatement.....last week, he spent 6 days (3/4's of which were raining) building taylor and walker a playhouse in our backyard.  he hammered away in the rain to finish it before taylor's birthday party.  it was so nice having him here....this AM taylor woke me up crying saying "i miss papa c"....i have to say, i miss him too.  i cannot thank my dad enough for the special gift he gave my children....we love everything about it.

Thursday, May 10, 2012






i made a quick visit to see my mom for mother's day last night....there's nothing like sitting on the back porch of the house i grew up in w/ a glass of wine, talking w/ my mom into the wee hours of the night....

last night i rolled around for what seemed like hours trying to fall asleep.  i don't do well in complete darkness and silence.  seriously, at almost 33 i should out grow that, right?!!  i prefer sleeping w/ the tv on...my husband would love nothing more then a pitch black room.  unfortunately, 97% of the time, he sucks it up for me.  so sweet.  last night, i tried real hard to not cave....and i didn't...i also didn't sleep.....coffee please.
