Happy Friday!! This moment - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see. Have a lovely weekend and thanks for stopping by!

We had a really busy weekend. On Saturday we went to a picnic at my brothers house. It was very humid out, but we all managed to eat too much food and have some fun! Then on Sunday we made another drive to NJ for my Uncle Tom and Aunt Candy's annual Lobster Fest party. It was a really great time. It was so very humid out and it rained most of the time, but when the Veth's have food involved, nothing will stop us! We put up some umbreallas and a long table and ate under the small roof of the porch! A great time was had by all!

Trip to MA

I was fortunate enough to have a visit in Haverhill, MA with my cousins-Brian and Teena and their adorable daughters Violet and Vintage. I traveled with another cousin, Bonnie. We had a wonderful time!! The girls are so cute and Violet is a total joy. She is very active and very opinionated!! I love her honesty and her innocence. I was told we were lucky enough to have come at the right time to also see Vintage becoming very animated! Until this week, she did not do too much! HAHA, we had her laughing and smiling and loving the whole time. I was pretty happy just sitting in the rocker holding her. I could have done that the entire time I was there! Fortunately we were able to do a few other things. We enjoyed an afternoon out in downtown Haverhill (where I found an awesome afghan at the thrift store for only $10!!) and also an evening with Uncle Bob and Aunt Kathy. We also got to explore a cute little town, Newburyport, where the baby had her blessing at a nice church. I think I could live in that little town very happily!

I thank all of my cousins for such a wonderful time and for Bonnie for allowing me to travel with her! I hope to be able to do it again soon!!

Cake weekend

I worked really hard on 2 cakes this weekend. I love doing cakes! I tried a new technique with the Eagle Scout cake and thought it came out extremely well! I have never done 2 cakes in one weekend that I sold before, so it was big deal for me! Now for the rest of this week... probably a lot of cleaning inside and getting ready for my next 2 weekends of visiting family in MA and NJ!!
I hope you enjoy your week!

Up Late

So, it is after 3am. I am still awake. I really have no clue why. I have not been sleeping well the past few nights and to make things worse, Brian snores so loud I can't stand it! I am now in the other end of the house and I can hear him clear as day over the a/c and the fan! Ugg... so here I sit, trying to make myself tired. The question is, how do you make yourself tired. I suppose I should just give in and take a tylenol pm and deal with the sleeping in too late tomorrow. Unfortunately, that creates a cycle I don't want to create. So, I will look around on the internet a while and then maybe, eventually, get some sleep. Maybe if I stay up all night and all day tomorrow, that will fix it!
