August Fun....

Hard to believe that we did have some fun this summer- the glaring fact of getting up and dressed by 7:30 almost every morning to greet various workmen has jaded me...but we did manage to end the summer with fun!! A delightful garden wedding with 2 adorable flower girls, a trip to the American Girl store, and a trip to the zoo!

My precious younger cousin got married last weekend on Long Island and had awesome weather (although very hot and humid..there was sun all day) and she included the girls in her wedding. She looked awesome and it was so wonderful to see our family all together celebrating with her. She has a great husband, a great house, and I am very very happy about that. Next up, I gathered my courage and we took Nana to NYC on the train to American Girl- I had to go this summer- it was sinful not to!! We had some of our dolls' ears pierced (the latest way to spend $$ there- at least we did not get their hair done!) and we had afternoon tea at 4PM. I was so proud of my abilities to maneuver us there and back. It was a great day. And finally, Daddy took us to the zoo! Another thing we wanted to do, but never did...so when all is said and done, we ended the summer with some real live fun activities....who could ask for more than that! As for our kitchen? Not one of our appliances are working.....still cannot cook....don't ask!!!
