Our Day in Denver

Today Lily and I went to Denver. We brought our friend, Christine along with us. We met up with my friend Josh. It was a great day. We ate at Victory Restaurant and I had a yummie candied walnut salad. Lily was on her best behavior and we really enjoyed our visit.

Unleaded

I know I am obsessed about this lead in toys issue. But I found a neat toystore from the Mom Go Green blog I read.

Oompa toys are now dividing up their toys by where they are made. I love it! I may have to investigate this shop for Lily's 1st Christmas and Birthday!

My friend, Amy also gave me a good website as well.

Today I had an impromptu gathering with my friends Cat, Karen and Kimberly. Thanks ladies for meeting me!

We also went to visit David's Mom in the hospital. She is doing okay and we hope she comes home soon!! David's Dad is doing well. He is up on crutches and moving around!

Tomorrow is a playgroup at Cat's house. Should be fun!!

Saturday I may be getting together with my friend Melanie.

Sunday is my outing to Denver with my friend, Christine to see Josh!

Lots going on, but that is a-okay with me :)

Lunch with Raz


Today Lily and I had lunch with Raz and her daughter, Carlie. Raz and I are a lot of like in that we love being social. I was joking with my friend, Amy, that I get depressed if I don't get out and about. I believe Raz would say she is the same way. Thank you Raz for your company!

Ramblings

Mommy and me
My fancy shmancy hat!

This week has been quite a crazy one! David's life is especially busy as his Dad just had hip surgery and his Mom is in the hospital right now. They are both doing okay, but it's still hard when a parent is in the hospital. Lily and I try to visit Grandma everyday to life her spirits and we hope she gets to come home soon!!

Today I had lunch with my friends Liz and Polly and darn it, forgot to take a picture. I hope to see them again soon and will remember their picture next time!

I heard from my good friend, Josh Prince today. He lives in NYC and soon will be choreographing the Broadway version of Shrek! I'm so excited for him!! I got his picture here. Anyways, Josh is in Denver for a week, so we are hoping we can trek up there to see him! It's been at least a year or two since I have seen him. We have known each other since about 13 years old. He's a sweet guy and remember his name, he will be famous!!

Tomorrow I will be visiting with my friends Raz and LaRain. I will remember to take pictures. I will remember to take pictures.

More later...

Happy Birthday and Playgroup





Today is my good friend, Amy's birthday!

I've known Amy since we were 17 years old at Lawrence Central HS in Indy. We also went to Indiana University together and were roomies for two years. She now lives in Kansas City with her husband, Chris and daugher, Elise and she is currently pregnant with their second daughter due in September. She is so very creative and sweet and kind and I'm so lucky to know her. Lots of hugs, Ames!! ( by the way, I stole this picture from Amy's pics...Thanks Ames!!)





I must also mention that my friend, Suz had her birthday on the 10th! I've known Suz since I.U. and we were roomies for one year. Suz lives in Portland (one of my favorite cities). I saw Suz last year when David and I went to Seattle and Portland for a visit. Lots of hugs Suz!! (and I stole this pic from Suz's Myspace...Thanks Suz!!)






Lily hosted a playgroup on Friday with three friends: Caoimhe, Isobel and Zachary. She had lots of fun with her buddies. I know this to be true, as she slept 11 hours last night! Tired baby!! Thanks Mommy friends for coming over and having a great playdate!!
