We went walking in downtown Carmel (CA) this weekend and passed this little shop covered with flowers. So pretty!
I desperately wanted to get a photo of all the kids together. I had a great shot at my mother-in-laws house – everyone was looking and smiling – but the flash didn’t go off . The next day I took one outside but I couldn’t get all the kids to smile and look at me at the same time. Oh, well. They still make me very happy. š
Okay, this is my act of humility. Confession time. I can be a little messy at times. (If my sister is reading then she just spit out her coffee and exclaimed, “A little?!” Living at home, when it came to neatness, she was the Felix to my Oscar.) Anyway, we’ve been doing some serious housecleaning this week and as I cleaned up I’d tell the kids, “put this on my desk.” (See how nicely I shift the blame to the kiddos so I don’t look so bad…) Finally the desk looked like it exploded and even I was shocked by the mess. I couldn’t help but laugh, hence the “funny.”
And for the real…tada! I got everything cleaned and sorted and even found a few things I thought I’d lost. I can’t guarantee it will stay looking like this but at least for today it will remain spotless. (I’ll just stay away from it.)
Thank you so much for the wonderful tip on maternity clothes! Why haven’t I thought of that?! 5 children later…haha
Anyway, oh my goodness that picture from Carmel is SO beautiful! I visited Carmel once, probably 10 years ago or so, and it was just one of the most lovely places ever. We went to Monterrey Bay Aquarium (saw your pic down in another post!) as well, what a blessing to be so near by!
I love your funny and real pictures. Good job, Bobbi!!
Andrea – Thanks for stopping by!. Glad you liked the tip. š Yes, I am really blessed to be living in Carmel. I remember when I first visited Brian (my husband) before we were married, I couldn’t believe just how pretty it was and how he took the beauty for granted since he saw it everyday. A decade later and I often have to stop and remember the beauty around me! Hopefully you can visit the place again in the future. š
Elena – You and Bridge are my inspiration to get my butt in gear and get more organized! LOL! Thank God with Jacinta here I can catch up since it is hard with the kids!
