Miller Men

When we pulled up to Barry’s parent’s house Barry’s brother and dad and were playing catch in the driveway and Barry excitedly yelled to them that he had his cleats on and was ready to join in.

I don’t think that either Greg or Brian heard what Barry yelled, but I found it really sweet that Barry was so excited to play ball with his dad and brother.

I’m pretty sure that Barry located his mitt and joined. I think this trio has been tossing the ball around in such a way for years and years.

And when they are done, they talk about baseball because that is what Miller Men do.

365 Ago…

We were on our three week road trip down the coast just hitting the Redwoods and excited to hike through the massive trees. After driving on long winding roads, we arrived at the trailhead only to discover that dogs were not allowed!! Since we weren’t about to abandon our hike and head back to the 4th of July crowd in town or leave our pooch in the car, we emptied our bacpack of goodies and stuffed her in and hit the trail.

This 4th of July we’re heading out for a stroll, but this time we’re packing Maggie and Sydney is happily leading the way from the ground.

Hope you have a safe 4th.

May Day

So, today was the day that my mom had been predicting that Miss Maggie Mae would arrive and since it was my mom making that prediction, I secretly felt like she knew something I didn’t. Thankfully, moms can be wrong and Maggie is here and I’m not welcoming a May Day baby.

So much is happening this month: I’ll celebrate my first Mother’s Day as a mom, two of my best friends (Erin & Lara) are having babies, and we’ll do our first trip up to Camp Janet, etc.

I’m happy to welcome this month with all the newness that Maggie brings, never again will May be the same now that Maggie Mae is here!
