THE BEACH HUT IS OPEN!!!

It's true.
The beach hut is open and we had a wonderful time there. Out here it's just as exciting as Christmas. Last year Luke was only a couple of months old so he didn't really appreciate the beach but this year he loved it. He even loved to pick up the rocks. Typical Boy!
Of course he has to taste them to make sure they were okay.
Auntie Mellie had just as much fun as Luke did and got to show him the seagulls which he loved.
Here we are with our coffee...yes life is good. Luke had eyes only for the ice cream.
He was not interested in looking at Auntie Mellie who was trying to take a nice pictures. He just wanted to look at the water.
He just loved it outside but of course wanted to continually run to the water.
There are so many things to discover on a beach.
So now that the beach hut is open, I may not have as much time to post. I may become like Jen and do it just once a year. LOL .......no, now I'll just have so much more to post about :) :)

It's Official!!!

It is now official!!. Luke is walking. I guess that means that he is now a toddler as he is toddling everywhere. What happened to that sweet baby boy that was so little such a short time ago? As you can see, he is very proud of himself and excited that he can walk all by himself.
It's also official that he is the cutest little guy. I love that kind of serious look that transforms completely when he smiles.
It's official! Luke is the smartest 10 month old baby I have ever known. Here is is reading one of my books. And he can read upside down no less!
It's official! I am going back to school. I have embarked on a very scarey adventure and am going back to school. I am going to try very hard to become a property manager. It is a one year course so I have a bit of time to hopefully figure out if my old brain can learn new things or retain anything of great importance. Heck I was excited when I learned how to copy and paste! I think that is the last thing I really learned that was of any importance. Sad! I think since Luke is so smart and can read upside down, he will be my new tutor. I sure need one.
Its Official!! Spring is here and I don't care what anyone says or what the weather does. It must be doing something right since my crocus's are growing like mad and I have some other flowers that are also blooming all over my yard. And it was +13 today so that is good enough for me. (besides...if I don't tell myself it's spring, I'll lose my mind and I have precious little to spare)
Aren't they just the most beautiful little flowers. They even survived the one day of snow we had last week. YES we had snow just last week.
I don't know what these are but they are flowers and they are growing in my yard so that makes them beautiful.

These ones look like they took a bit of a beating but they are still trying to bloom and grow and they give me hope. I sometimes feel a bit beat up too and if these little fragile flowers can still bloom with the crap weather we've had, then I guess I won't give up just yet.
