HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!

Happy Memorial Day everyone! I hope you are all getting some time to enjoy your family and a little relaxing. We are going to a friend's home for swimming and BBQ.
I am missing my little Levi, he has gone to visit Grandpa Vince in Washington and then Nana in Oregon and then Uncle Pete and Auntie Dana and their baby Jonas. He will be gone for 3 or 4 weeks. I'm sure he is having great fun. It's not the same around here without him....
So here's my thought for the day....with the craziness of life we seldom get the chance to just be still. You know those rare moments when everything stops, peace fills you, and gratitude overwhelms you. Don't let those moments pass just pass you by, grab onto them, soak them up, and savor them. Because fleeting they are, and the speed of life erases them.
Remember that today is a gift, that's why it is called the present. I love you all, Heidi

Thanks for the reminder. I am always moving and doing something and I definitely need to slow down. We're excited to have Levi stay with us for a while. I hope the weather gets better before he gets here, though. It's raining and I don't think there will be many outside BBQ's for dinner either. Take care and we love you guys.

Hey Heidi!! So long story short...Yvette Weech was blog hopping, found my blog, invited me to her's, I saw Annie and Gretchen, and then found you! VOILA! You can check us out at www.lyarn1.blogspot.com

I hope I can make your jewelry party. Chris plays ball in Thursday nights and if it's a late game they are 8 and 9pm. If their early games then their from 6 and 7pm. I'll let you know. Either way, the jewelry looks great and I want to look at a catalog!
