Schnauzers in knit hats

I found this picture over at Mary C’s Blog

So very cute. Makes me laugh and remember our schnauzers in their Santa hats.

Keeping up with the Aussies

There’s a new post over at FAMVIN Revolutionary Action that is very interesting.

A new look

I guess the new look reflects the fact that for the past few months, this has really been the baby blog. Really, I do have a life of my own. Really.

But, a new little life sure does intrigue me. To see the changes. To see the many faces. To watch how much her daddy, who really thought he wanted a boy, dotes on her. I think she won his heart on Sunday when she spent much of [his first] Father’s Day babbling “Da Da Da Da Da…”

Anyway - I’ll get back to my funny signs, and vacation observations, real soon now.

Lily at Play

Lily at home - in Florida

She’s very petite and very lively…

Marie Finishes Nursing School

Last week (May 12) I spent the day in Tuscaloosa (and Northport) celebrating Marie’s completion of her RN program. While I’m not sure how much she wanted to go through it beforehand, I know from watching her smile, that she was so very glad that she did go through the ceremony — with Kevin, Jeanne, Charlie and me to cheer her on.

After graduation we retreated to their house and enjoyed lunch before returning to the school for the Pinning Ceremony. I found that to be a lovely, rather intimate event - just the nursing students, faculty and guests. The speaker talked about how important the nurses have been for his young daughter’s cancer treatment - and how important they could be.

It was well worth the late return to Auburn to have been able to stay and share in the whole day.

The rest of the pictures are out on my Picasaweb

Beach Baby

Looks like Lily is going to enjoy living in Florida…

New York

Metro fare card: $10
Museum admission: $20
Dinner for 2 at a nice place in Manhattan: $130
Hailing a cab to get back to Queens immediately upon exiting the restaurant: PRICELESS

When I landed at LaGuardia on Saturday I was pleasantly surprised to find the temperature in the 50’s. Didn’t last! Yesterday Bruce Krause and I headed out to the Met -wind chill had it down in the single digits, I do believe. Picture a couple of diehard southerners in that kind of weather trying to hail a cab on 5th Avenue at 5 pm. We did finally get one, but not before my face was stinging with cold.

There’s a wonderful exhibit of Tiffany glass on thru May 20th - so the trip was worth it.

Youtube? we’ll try it!
