Hope Bennett is feeling better. Loved your list today!

Wonderful list :)
Keep me posted on the book club-thanks for thinking of me. :)
And if little girls are ever welcome on a afternoon walk with friends, keep Hannah (and me) in mind :) Any time out of the house even for a short break from work is always refreshing!

Kindra said...

A wonderful list as always. I love the pictures of our little guys together. And I needed that time out away from husbands and babies as much as you did :)
