Hello Friends! Happy Friday! ♥
We have arrived at the end of a beautiful week here in New England and so far, June has not disappointed me. After a rainy and stormy Memorial Day weekend, the sun is making up for lost time.
I've been having my coffee on the porch this past week, watching the birds, with the sweet smell of lilacs in the air. I can't help but think about the bitter cold winter we had and how I thought it would never end. So much snow!! And now here we are. This is why I love the changing seasons.
There is always something to look forward to.
I need to come back out here with my clippers later this afternoon and snip some of these before it's too late. Unfortunately, the season is short. Blink and you'll miss it!
This week was a busy one, but I did make sure to get outside and enjoy nature as much as I could. I've been walking every night after dinner. Right after I do the dishes, before I've had a chance to even sit down (because if I do...forget it...it aint happening :). I live at the top of a hill so if you walk in my neighborhood, it's a workout - which I guess is the whole point since it's the only real exercise I get.
I really like that time of day to walk. I believe it's called twilight so naturally... It's nice and cool because the sun is setting and it seems all my neighbors are busy doing their dinner dishes or watering their plants or walking their dogs. It's a cozy time. And you know me, if I'm going to "work out" it has to have a cozy aspect to it! Lately I've been listening to music (mostly 80's pop) because that gives me a pep in my step up the long hill to my house. If I go around twice it takes me about 20 minutes and it's a solid mile. I'll take that. Then it's back home for my nightly cereal and chocolate chips. I know, it doesn't seem right, but I am who I am : )
Tomorrow we will be attending my nephew Anthony's high school graduation.
Last year was John and now it's Anthony's turn.
These two have been best buds forever! ♥
John has always had a special relationship with his cousins. With him being and only child, they have always been more like siblings to him.
Julia, Sophia, and Anthony. Such great kids and I'm so grateful for them!
They've always supported each other!
And love to spend time together!
Tomorrow we'll celebrate Anthony! He's the last of the cousins to graduate.
How time has flown! ♥
The forecast is expected to be warm and sunny (not too hot, but better than that...no rain :)
Sunday will be my day to relax. My social battery will no doubt be drained by then. Rob and I will go to an early mass and hopefully out to breakfast. He doesn't know it yet, but that's the plan! lol
The rest of day I would like to sit on the porch, sip iced coffee, and do some reading....at least for a little while anyway. I can already picture it in my head and I can't wait.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend too! ♥
Happy June! xx
Cousins your age are the BEST! I grew up with so many, but unfortunately my boys only have a couple and they live across the country. Built in besties ;)
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are beautiful!! Cousins are the best. I was an only child until I was 10 and relied heavily on my cousins. Yes, time goes by so quickly. Enjoy the new week!!
