Amsterdam! I loved it!

Barely here for 24 hours! Ryan, Kelli, Amber, Arran, and I arrived on the 24th of June and left about 1:00 in the afternoon on the 25th. Janet and Bob were waiting for us in the airport. We checked in to the hotel, Ryan & Kelli opted to stay with their cats and I left with Janet and Bob. They drove me around on a fast and furious tour! We ate great pancakes, drank some wonderful beer(mine was cherry) , saw windmills, and stopped off at their new house.

Too much fun! It was a great layover, so good to catch up with my friends! Played with the color of some of the pictures while on the plane.

Well Done!

Well, well, well! Ryan Michael Valentine graduated on June 2. Yeah! yeah! Yeah!

ALL That I CAN!

Trying to see all that I can!

A very BIG thanks to my buds who are traveling around the countryside at a moment's notice!These are from Arbroath, St. Vigean's, Brechin, and Aberlemno. We ate arbroath smokies, smoked salmon, dressed crab, and then fish and chips just outside of Brechin.

Great Book

Just finished "Comfort Me With Apples". I thought it was a very fun read with fabulous recipes included. It was written by the editor of Gourmet magazine. My mom got me hooked on Gourmet about 10 or so years ago. It was a AWA book club book and I can't wait to see what others think next week at the meeting.

Ryan is 18!

My baby boy turned 18 yesterday!

13--What is on your mind? Knitting is on my mind as therapy for the other things that are actually on my mind!

In the last 4 weeks I have been back to Texas to see Chels, taken my first walk around Dunnottar(thanks Bonnie, Matt, and Cameron), toured Marischal Museum with Elizabeth, and about a million other things to get ready for Ryan's graduation, the end of the school year, and *THE MOVE*!
