Happy Birthday Pepere!

This week was my Dad's 63rd birthday. We had a great night out at a local seafood restaurant. The food is so great there. Mr. B and Miss O came along and it was a hoot! We had a great meal but may or may not have offended some of the other patrons with flying spaghetti and yelling. Our waitress was so nice and even made us a bottle for Mr. B with warm water! Pepere was just happy to have them there so that's what matters, right?! I am so proud to have the parents that I do. They are a pillar of strength for our family and are true examples of faith and integrity. I thank God for each year I have with them because I know it isn't a given, but a blessing.

It's always a party when the napkin's on your head!


It was a great night!

Where have we been?

I have been so busy the past few weeks that I have been neglecting my blog! The past week we have been DRENCHED with rain and it is a mess here in MA! Our basement flooded once again and the past few nights have been spent getting up every couple of hours to check on it and make sure the pumps are on if water is coming in. Luckily we don't have much down there after getting two feet...yes feet of water in there a couple of weeks back, but we do have our burner which cost of over $1000 to fix last time and my new Crate and Barrel teak patio furniture from last year! Uggh. But, when I drive around neighboring towns and see houses with water halfway up them I feel thankful that it is just my basement! We had a great weekend with the family last weekend and celebrated one of Mr. Wonderful's favorite holidays...St. Patrick's Day! I cooked the usual boiled dinner and we celebrated my grandmother and dad's birthdays with the extended family. I will post later tonight or tomorrow with some pics of water, the weekend and more! Hope everyone is having a great day. We are so thankful that we can stop building he arc now that the sun has come out!
