Camp Mather 09

An EPIC week at Camp Mather. Maggie was IN her element. Running around (shoe-less most the time!), and just loving her freedom. And I had an amazing time with all the kids & my good friends. It's rare to get that unplugged, wholesome bonding with everyone where all that is around you is what's in front of you. A week I don't think any of us will forget.



Riding Tweetie the Donkey.


Making her first Tye-Die T-shirt.


Wheeling around with Alex, Lola & Vivi




Getting the Wiggles out with Eddie & Mariza.




Playing on stage.

Girlz Weekend

Maggie and I just spent a weekend in Minneapolis visiting Aunt Red - she turned 40!!! Aunt Peach and Nana flew in to celebrate. It was a much needed escape & break from our crazy, ever hectic city life.

A few small reminders that Maggie is being raised in a city:
- thinking the water tower looked like a giant sucker in the sky
- commenting that cousin Claire & Grace have their own park (their backyard)
- and completely mesmerized by the blue's clue sprinkler that all the kids were running through.
- running out the back door so she can run to the front
- the ICE CREAM truck!!

We loved ever minute from jumping on the trampoline, playing princess dress up, swimming, a peaceful moment with a fire & s'mores...
