Art Work

Art show time and lets find our creations!
Drew is trying to replicate his - interesting....
Shane told me this one was so hard to make - the whole class sounded funny making all those dots.
Little guys do big things - Yes nick - this is true!
recycled artwork by Drew - 
While the milk jug piggy bank is a adorable, (lid bling and all)  I have a stinking suspicion it was the class example for the project - meaning I wonder about its originality - either way.  Drew owned it.
Photo evidence so we don't have to actually save it!  You hear me??

Nora

We said we would help while momma recored from surgery - and yet she fit in so well.  They needed to let go of one more ting in their lives and she fit right in.
She is a sweet girl and just wants to be with you - I mean me, yes, she chose me.

Thankful she is a she, as maybe she gets me.


With love, from the Izzo's

Mother's day

The morning started with Yoga with my momma and a yummy coffee afterwards.  She never treats herself to Starbucks (I don't either) so the moment to do so together was the treasure.
Than to Lost Acres winery in Granby.
To think we almost lived across the street - imagine the different turn our lives would have taken.
Love these peeps
WE brought some aged cheese - but the Izzo's had us beat with this aged bit of deliciousness - all the rage for those under 11
Had to capture these poor legs - I mean seriously, this kid is ALWAYS on the go and does not stop - even when it comes to running into stuff
Soaking in this beautiful day

Finding time to slow down

Cold rainy day Saturday snuggles to watch Thor - my snuggle partner is the BEST
learned to play STRATGO with this toothless wonder
I think Nora is almost done with snuggle time - walk anyone.
with our schedule lately I was thrilled to have the Roberts visit as Darion is now a Berkly GRADUATE - but I could hardly put it together to host.  I wanted to host from this position right here.  Glad they are good fiends.

Maypole Dancing

We have attended 4 Maypoles now  - let me tell you, they don't chance a thing - just the kids.
Funny if you scroll back to when Shane was in 1st grade, he wore the SAME SHIRT!  Couldn't believe it myself.

He was totally into it - my folks and Chris got to see Drew's section
I got to see Shane's - He sang - but not very loudly - and rather awkwardly - onto CIS next year boys
A little Maypole happy hour and a moment to treasure my most favorite time of the year.

Clearly its time to watch a movie

Happy Birthday Oma Sue

A delicious dinner out on the deck OMA SUE style which means TAKE OUT from the Mexican Restaurant.  Now I like how you think!!  (side note - it was cinco di may as we were a few days late 0 so calling in the order was HUGE) and we all know Goomba makes the best Margaritas!
Happy birthday to this wonderful happy lady that does her best every day to find the good and bring it to others.
Love the photo of these 2 besties - 
Thankful we all get to be a part of your everyday life!
