It's been a pretty easy going week and weekend. During the week, I took some time for myself and went out with Lisa and Angie to do a bit of painting. Lisa is a member of Stroller Strides and they are always finding fun things for the ladies to do without their children! This month was Wine and Design, a chance to hang out with the girls and to be able to be creative. We all had such a great time and we are already planning the next time we can get together to do it again!

Madison has now become of age...the age of being invited to EVERY birthday party of every child in her class! This weekend we attended our first BIG birthday party. There we got to meet many of the children we hear about when she comes home at night. It was nice to be able to meet the parents of these children as well. Madison had such a great time and wasn't ready to leave but irritability was setting in since there was no nap earlier in the day and she had played so very hard!

We had such a nice weekend. Madison was able to have a lot of time with Allie and the parents were able to have time together. The girls are really getting much better at playing together and keeping themselves entertained. We still have to step in sometimes when there is a bit of sharing (or no sharing ) going on!
Sunday afternoon was spent taking down a dead cypress that separates our house and Lisa's house. Seems the others are dying as well, but we'll take them down one by one until we are able to replace them. Taking them down sure does leave more room for the girls to run between the houses! We decided that neither of us will be able to move since our lawns seem to become one more and more. :-)
That's about it from Raleigh! We are looking forward to Grandma, Grandpa and Chloe's visit next week!!!
Love to All!
