Road Trip Day 5

In a couple of hours we're getting back  into the car for the last day of our road trip.  This leg is from Ft. Thomas, KY to Reisterstown, MD.  We arrived in Ft. Thomas on Friday afternoon and have spent the last few days hanging out with my son and his wonderful family.  They have a 3 year old daughter, Sophie, and twin 11 1/2 month old boys, Owen and James.  I can't believe how fast everyone is growing up.  We delivered Sophie's new window treatments for her bedroom.  The are really cute.  My sister Fran made them for her to go with her newly painted green, pink and white striped beddroom.  Sophie's other grandma made her a wonderful comforter to go on her big girl bed.  She is all set for her first sleepovers.

We spent a couple of afternoons at Tower Park.  Sophie loves the big park which has a whole bunch of slides and things to climb on.  Yesterday we met one of Kara's good friends there with her two daughters.  We stopped for lunch on the way home.  What a nice day.  The weather is finally cooperating and it was a lovely 78 and sunny.

Both boys are just now starting to pull up on furniture and walk while holding on.  It won't be long now until they are really mobile.  They are trying to say words and they can clap and wave.  Very cute.  I hate to leave them even though I'm coming back next weekend for their first birthday party.

Eight and a half hours to go and I can put this road trip to bed.  Can't wait to get home and get busy making some new jewelry.

Happy Mother's Day to All

Happy Mother's Day everyone.  I am in Fort Thomas today spending Mother's Day with my son and his family.  I can't remember the last time we spent Mother's Day together.  Probably when he was still in college.  Now he has kids of his own.

Enjoy your moms if you still have the opportunity.  I'm missing my mother a lot these days.
