Pieces of History

My mom brought a box of miscellaneous items over the other day. Among the "treasures" were some of my old Brownie badges and this winter hat that Great Aunt Elaine knit for me. Sissy found it and helped herself.

I wonder if my great aunt everdreamed that the hat she was knitting would be worn by her great great niece 37 years later...

Brothers and Sisters

One of my very favorite things to do is watch my kids play together. Snacks is so good with Sissy. They play tag and Sissy's own version of hide-and-seek. Listening to Sissy's screams of laughter is priceless.

Today I sat and watched them play together for quite awhile at the children's play area at REI.

And there was nowhere else I would rather have been.
