 Just some photos over the last couple of months. 

Addy's cheering section at the Cheer Showcase. 

This was a big deal for Addy. This is Lucy and she is one of Ava's friends. 

Lucy is a pretty big deal at school. She's pretty, popular and good at sports. After the showcase, she walked up to Addy and asked for a photo with her. Addy was so excited! It was adorable!

I've been starting to walk a little more. These girls are so good and being my walking partners

Addy made herself an iced coffee. With whipped cream on the straw.

Recognition at school for Addy!

Pretending to drive the car

So I love Drybar. John and Nate got me a membership for Christmas so I get a free blowout every month. I love how they make it happen!

Upgraded desk photos. Along with my work plant, Keanu Leaves. 

Love my badass girls.

Dinner with my favorites. 

Blech.

Vendor fair with these girls!

Ran into the cutest Grandma at dinner. 

Tumbling and BK on my carpool night. 

Facials. 

Millicent Anne.

Baby Quinn. She's so cute!

Rascal Flatts. Man, this was a fun night.

Love. 

Soccer in the living room. Always.

Voting Day! Unfortunately, our levy failed again. It was just a renewel with NO ramifications. Genoa has some very bitter folks.

Another walk. Sometimes I drag Nana and Jojo along.

Oh, and another. 

Addy's Middle School Academics Awards!

Addy Grace was recognized at the Middle School Academic Awards! 

This girl truly works so hard so what an accomplishment! 

Not only was she on High Honor Roll all year, she did it while she cheered for football, basketball, competition team, played Fall and Spring volleyball AND going to tumbling each week. 

7th Grade definitely hasn't been easy for her and she is excited for the school year to end.

 

John RETIRED!!

After having a job since he was 16 years old, John retired. 

He definitely deserves it and has worked so hard for his family. 

He spent the last few years ensuring we will be in a good spot and worked hard to make it happen. 

So now I have a full time maid, pool boy, chef, errand runner. 

Big celebration coming soon! Stay tuned.

 

Mothers Day 2025

Gosh, I love Mother's Day! 

The amount of love on this day just warmed my heart. 

We woke up and headed to brunch at The Crow's Nest in Marblehead. 

Mimosas, yummy food, and gifts! 

It was so fun! 

It was a little chilly and alot windy. 

But I made them all pose for photos!

Back home for afternoon siestas and catching up on shows before heading to volleyball. 

It was a wonderful day!

Diamond Elite Volleyball - Spring Season

Addy Grace tried club volleyball this Spring. She played for a new club called Diamond Elite. 

It was definitely a learning experience for both of us. 

But she had fun, at at the end of the day, that's all that mattered.

 

We had lots of family support!

And got one of my most favorite photos!

Then they WON their division! 

Bring on open gyms and Fall volleyball.

Catsitting!

Uncle Nate went on a golf trip to Kentucky for 5 days, so the family was in charge of Anya. 

We kept sending him photos and videos. 

The biggest "WOW" moment?

Check out that last photo.
