Love is all around

I blinked & it's May and my baby just turned one, my little girl just lost her first tooth and my first born is more than half the height of Kevin.  A lot has happened in the last month and it all happened in lightening speed.

It all started right where I left off on March 23rd.  That weekend me & Lucy tagged along on Kevin's work trip to CT.  Lucys first flight and my first time back since we left 4 years ago.  Its the state Kevin & I lived for 8 years, got married in, bought our first house in, & had two babies in :o   It was a great trip and we were able to see all our old friends & all their new babies & houses.  Kevin convinced me not to take my camera (why did I listen?) :/  So lemme see what I can dig up for pictures from that trip. 

Really?  That's it?  ooof.  disappointing.  Guess we'll have to go back.  I do love me a CT summer.....

The following weekend my brother & his family stopped at our house for 2 nights on their way to the beach ...cause we are close enough now they can do that :)

Again, why can I only find this picture?  I know I had loads more....they were on my phone, now where are they??  Bummer :/  An Ohio summer ain't too shabby either......just sayin

Next up was Springbreak in Texas. I had a very physical emotional reaction to being back.  For having only lived there for 3 years it felt more like home than anywhere else I have ever lived.  I'm sure it's because family is there & that our neighborhood was filled with families raising families and we had neighbors that we took trips with & a cul-de-sac with 10 kids all our kids ages. Or maybe it's because I felt like a 2nd mother to all the neighborhood babies....whatever it is, it felt like home, still. We had such a great time celebrating being back together with family and being able to spend time with friends.  Everything about it was perfect.  Count us in for Springbreak 2018!  My camera was the first thing on my "to pack" list :)  I took a silly amount of pictures so here are some of my favorites (& a link for the OTHER PICS)

I'm so beyond happy that we have friends - GOOD FRIENDS - at all our old spots in life & now we still live close to family & are reunited with some of the friends that knew us before we were us.
