A Muse News: Catching up

Happy weekend everyone!

Sorry for the lack of posts this week. It was a busy week! I took all three of my girls to get their hair cut. Their hair got quite damaged with all the lice treatment stuff. Ugh! Bella (as she now likes to call herself) got hers cut the shortest. It's fabulous and she loves it too!

The other girls didn't want too much cut off due to bun requirements in the fall for ballet.

It was Annabelle's birthday on Thursday. She wanted to have a family picnic on her special day. The morning of her birthday it was very cold and grey. So, she decided she wanted to celebrate her birthday on the ferry! How fun! We picked up some Thai food and took a ferry ride over to Bainbridge Island. We had a picnic on the ferry and then on the return trip, Bella opened her gifts. The day ended with cake and ice cream back at our housee.

If you've been a fan of A Muse since the "early" days, you may have spoken to Jenae on the phone or exchanged emails with her. She was originally a babysitter for my girls and then took over running the day-to-day operations for A Muse for nearly two years. Jenae has not missed one of the girls' birthday dinners EVER! She is so awesome and we love her!!

And, the best part of any birthday cake is licking the candles as they come off the cake! Yum!

I did make a few cards this week. Yay, me! I just love the happy colors on this card.

And, since the girls and I have been working in the garden, I was inspired to make a Gardening journal to keep track of the things we planted and the work we do.

Here's Makenna in front of the plants the girls chose and planted in front of our house. We've had such a cold spring that we didn't feel like planting anything until this week! As you can see, our garden is mostly dirt! LOL!
