So the weekend started out on a nice note, my daughter took her first jump at her riding lesson, smiles all around.  Unfortunately, I then went and sprained my ankle.  At first we thought it was a break (I heard a whole lot of snap, crack, pop when it happened), so off to the ER the whole family went.  Good times.  Luckily it is just a sprain and I should be go enough to walk around on it for out upcoming trip (knock on wood).

(and when did it get to be June?!)

I just got these and love how they turned out.

For a long weekend, it went awfully fast.  The highlight was a fun night at the Timbers game which also provided a perfect view of the thunder and lightening.  Then this morning the best bit of crochet bombing I’ve seen yet.

Just a little bogged down with work and spiffing up my workspace a little.  It has turned into one of those house projects where one thing leads to another, to another.  I can’t wait to have my space back, no doubt it will be much more efficient when done, until then….not so efficient…

We had a wonderful mother’s day/birthday boy combo day here on Sunday with perfect blue skies to enjoy it.  Now I have a boy home from school with a crazy eye thing going on (that you can see just starting in the pic above), luckily he has several new lego kits to keep him busy!

Sun.  That pretty much sums up the weekend.  Well, that and a life changing scoop of sea salt caramel ice cream from here.  It feels like summer and the stress of last week is gone.  What a great start to the week!

So many things swirling around these parts right now, I’m feeling a little disjointed.  It doesn’t help that I’m a little under the weather and there are some major life decisions going on, potentially good ones, but stressfull nonetheless.  I’m trying my hardest to stay focused and get some work done!

How does that keep happening?!

We had the most beautiful weather this weekend and it felt. so. good.  I got an early bday gift from my parents and am loving it, an old school polaroid camera.  It’s like magic to the kids.  We did an easter treasure hunt with some friends that led to a fun old fashioned soda fountain shop, so the kids got their fill of sugar.   Now, fingers crossed the sun stays for a few more days, at least.

I finally got my hair cut the other day.  I’m almost as bad about scheduling hair cuts as I am about teeth cleanings.  Have a wonderful weekend!
