O'Malleys With Friends!

 

It was a BEAUTIFUL Spring Saturday afternoon to take a bus ride to O'Malleys in Weston with dear friends! We had 26 total joining us!

With my favorite guy at my favorite bar - 
singing Irish songs with our favorite friends!

The bus looked huge when it pulled up to our house!

IYKYK - this entrance to O'Malleys original level gets me giddy every time!



My favorite Irishman . . . 

Kirsten surprised us and jumped on stage to sing an Irish folk song . . . 

She owned it!




Me + Laura!

The end of the night crew - missing a few . . .

Molly and friends volunteered to help with the First Communion Tea 
for the 2nd Grade Girls at Cure' of Ars and their Mothers!

The Legos have appeared again and I'm not made about it!
Love seeing them build with them again . . .never too old for legos!

Bear and his "baby."

Kate had a 4th grade class roller skating party at Skate City!

Last week of track practice . . .

Molly had last week volunteering at School of Religion with friends - 

Molly was in the 2nd grade classroom helping them prepare for 
their sacraments every other Wednesday night this entire school year.

The girls went the St. James Track Meet to cheer on Evelyn Overlease!

My spring garden is bountiful! Both Molly and I have been 
picking the spinach for salads and smoothies!

Our Week in Pix . . .

 

A beautiful tree gifted to us by our sweet neighbors in Apple Valley when Grandma JoJo passed away last fall is now blooming beautifully in the sunshine.

And the lilacs in the neighborhood are making it smell like candy outside.


It was a cold and windy track meet this week . . . but our girls never complained!

Kate ran her first 400m race and had a great time!

My garden is sprouting!

I had sinus surgery to remove this extra bone in my left nostril and to breathe better through my nose going forward!

Sarah sent a care package filled with delicious ice cream!!

Bear made a great cuddler as I healed - here we are reading in Kate's bed.

Sister competitions continue . . . 

Beautiful spring nights . . .

Kate's artwork at school won the grade "Masterpiece" Award!

Mike + Molly went to the K to see the Royals in person!
