On our walk through Golden Gate Park, we saw lots of pretty flowers, including these poppies.
Spring Break Day 5: Alcatraz
After an early morning of sunrise, fruit, coffee and yogurt, we headed back up the hill to the Legion of Honor. THough we didn’t go in, we did explore the sculpture garden and the courtyard. We walked back down the other side and ended up at the playground, which thrilled Chloe. Back at the apartment,

The morning view from Suze’s roof is a pretty nice one!!
Spring Break Day 4: Coastal Trail
I was up before 5am, taking care of a number of things including making coffee. I managed to get the girls up and ready for the day, then we walked down the street to the Coastal Trail. What a view — and what a hill to climb! At last, we made it up and over!

Spring Break Day 3: The Crazy Skies
Although our flight wasn’t due to leave until 3pm, we had to rise and shine very early. So many chores, so much packing, so much preparations to be done. Folding laundry, emptying dishwasher, cleaning kitty litter, tossing leftovers, loading dishwasher, taking out trash, taking our recycling, picking up, cleaning, sweeping, packing, prepping Phelix for a

I must get in the habit of carrying around my real camera … who knew that we were going to have such a view?? Thankfully, I’ll be able to easily return here, as it is the view from my sister’s roof!!
Spring Break Day 2 : Grace Potter
I didn’t sleep well because Gazoo kept getting me up. I was then up early to help Chloe and Rob get out the door a little after 6am. After a day of cleaning and getting things done, I wasn’t much in the mood to get on MARTA to head to join the crowds at Centennial

After we left the “Final Four Big Dance”, Rob led us from Centennial Park back to MARTA through some weird tunnels …
Spring Break Day 1 : Decatur, GA
Our first full day of Spring Break didn’t take us very far, but that didn’t meant that it wasn’t lots of fun. While Camille, Claire and Phelix walked up to Claire’s house to get Chloe from her sleepover, I went over to the ribbon cutting for the new Decatur Visitor’s Center: Once Camille and Chloe

As Camille and I walked across the square on Friday afternoon, we found this handknit hat hanging around waiting for a new owner. Want to share a photo from a hometown of your this week? Link up below! Please share a link back to this page in your post to spread the love!

Spring is here! Trying to get these photos while holding the leash trying to constrain Phelix the dog from chasing squirrels is too challenging. I think I need to get my macro on and leave the dog at home tomorrow!
photo friday: blue ridge weekend
Weekends have become crowded with kid events. It seems like there is always something on our schedule these days – gymnastics meets, conventions, 5K races, birthday parties, and so on. When I saw that we could make Easter weekend cleared of events, I decided that it was high time for a cabin weekend. Packing up

Today I spent the morning over at the high school, learning about the school system. And I understand a lot better now the educational philosophy of IB in the middle years and look forward to seeing how well it is implemented as Chloe moves forward.
happiness project once again
Why the project? I’m happy enough, aren’t I? I have a comfortable home, overall financial stability, family and friends. And a very crazy puppy. What’s not to be happy about? But, as Gretchen Rubin points out, that doesn’t mean that we can’t work in positive ways to pursue even more happiness and contentment. I would

King of Pops handed out free popsicles today on the square. The line was long, but moved quickly, since the money handling side of the operation was eliminated…

I wasn’t sure that we were going to get them done in time, but we did …. Easter eggs dyed with beets, cabbage and turmeric.
