Happy Birthday, Heather and Ella!!

Big birthdays for our tribe!! 

We got together at Katie's to celebrate our besties birthdays!! 

We all enjoyed much needed girl time. 

The Mama's enjoyed champagne and the littles enjoyed the trampoline! 

Of course, no one wanted the day to end. 

The girls even managed a little extra time as they stayed while I went to the store.

Happy Birthday, Girls!! 

We love you!!

Social Distancing - Week 8

We are coming to an end of Social Distancing. 

We will still take precautions but for the most part Ohio is opening. 

I go back in the office for 1 day a week starting on June 1st. This will last through the month of June. 

Early morning shopping trips bring my much needed coffee. 

 Nate and I, social distancing, in the elevator at the hospital. Haha!

Our community was hosting a special group to "Adopt A 5th Grader" since they missed all of their end of the year fun. We were fortunate that Ms. Pam, our bus driver. chose Ava. 

She dropped off a bag of goodies, including sushi!! 

Even AG snagged a gift bag from Ms. Pam. 

Friday night was Morgan's birthday!! 

The girls and I participated in the birthday parade!! 

Silly JoJo! 

Enjoying her sushi and chicken chunks! 

This girl can eat!!

Much needed hot tub and wine. 

While I was up at the hospital, my family started opening the pool! 

They took a break to Facetime with Grandpa!

Uncle Nate stopped over and pulled his tricks with Addy. 

This is the first time we have ever opened the pool and it was clear! 

John was thrilled!

Addy Grace has started making popsicles. Read: All she does is pour liquid into them. But she really thinks she has become a chef. She keeps saying "Now what should I make". 

This was Sprite! Haha!

Saturday night puzzles and coffee. 

We are wrapping up our last week of school!! 

The girls are so happy!!

Mothers Day 2020

Awww...I love my girls! 

Mother's Day was fantastic! 

We woke up and made breakfast together. 

I made French Toast and Ava made bacon. 

Addy set the table and John cleaned it all up!

I was then gifted with thoughtful gifts. 

Addy gave me a bouquet of flowers. 

Funny story: I have a vase of flowers on my kitchen counter. I noticed a few days prior that some were missing. I asked if anyone knew were they were. Addy told me she took them for Mothers Day. Haha!! So I got a bouquet of flowers that were originally on my kitchen counter! Haha!! 

John did a great job! 

My annual Pugh plate, an amazing sign, and a purple ladle for the kitchen!! 

We had plans to go to Tracy's and I needed to bring dessert. John asked that I try my hand at Aunt Tammy's chocolate cake. It was a close second! Still yummy!!

We headed to Tracy's for dinner with my mom, Em, Nate and all of Tracy's kids. 

It was a fantastic day followed up with a thunderstorm but brought a sweet rainbow. 

Social Distancing - Week 7!

Things are starting to open up. I have a tentative "Return to Office" date. 

We will be working 80% remote and 20% in the office. Which means starting June 3rd, I'm back in the office every Wednesday. The girls have one more week of eLearning and I have to be honest, we are all ready. It's going well, it's working. It's just the end of the year, you know?

Addy had a project this week at school and she needed baby photos. These are the photos I chose. 

Isn't she adorable???

The girls and I played hooky one day and headed to Toledo. 

We stopped for a yummy treat (with a LONG wait) and then headed to share with our friends. 

Everyone has been following the guidelines and we just needed to see each other. 

They may not be 6 ft. apart but we were under the 10 person rule and no one licked each other. 

I got new glasses in the mail and a couple of little girls were excited to try them out. 

Nachos for Cinco de Mayo! 

The Fighter Jets were doing fly overs at the local hospitals so we hung out in the parking lot to check them out. 

Hot tub with the Besties!

Ava made some glasses from a piece of plastic and duct tape. 

The Genoa community lost an icon. Roland had worked at Genoa McDonald's since it opening in the 80's. He passed away unexpectedly last week. McDonalds had this sweet sign. 

 More mowing for Ava Kate! 

Facetime with Grandma!

 Sweet treats from Ignite!

Saturday night card games...
