Sometimes the last minute plans are the BEST...

It's not very often that we have a weekend without a long list of "have-to's" but as the week drew to a close we came up with the brilliant idea to head to San Francisco to spend some time with Jana, Joe and Lily. It's so wonderful to have our own "Bed and Breakfast" right there! (It's more like Airbed and Oatmeal but we love it!!) And we could not have ordered a more perfect weather forcast-clear, sunny and warm! We spend most of the day outside visiting our favorite haunts and enjoying some of my favorite people.

Two of a Kind

Is it my imagination or are they starting to look alike????

H2O at Home

I have to share an amazing line of home and personal care products offered by a company called H2O at Home. The company started in France and its all about "going green" with chemical free cleaning. But the thing that is the most wonderful are their cleaning cloths that allow me to clean my stainless steel appliances with just water and no streaks! A good friend of mine gave a demonstration at my house tonight and I was so impressed. Check it out and if you have any questions, get in touch.

EXAMPLE....for this I am profoundly grateful

I Miss My Auntie Megan....

Lilly was great about carrying Megan around and making sure she didn't miss out on anything!!

Family Memories

Everyone took turns holding Megan!!

Posterity....

Every child, grandchild and great-grandchild was present and accounted for as we gathered for Grandma's 90th birthday celebration!! (we carried a picture of Megan around on a stick!) What a beautiful picture we all have in our memories of her so so happy, surrounded by her family. The love of family was so strong I could feel it in the air. The Brink's are a crazy-fun bunch of people-the day was filled with an Insanity Workout, golf (of course), working on all the preparations together, kids everywhere having fun and blowing horns. Corey organized a group of "hey, cheerleaders", told some stories that surely had Grandpa cracking up, and led us all in the Hakka. It was truly a day of heaven on earth.
