"little miss sunshine" glasses found at st. vinny's
after a great day of teaching
reconnecting with your family is icing on the cake

namaste

you know how I love my jumping photos
so when mattresses are left on a street corner
well can you even imagine the fun
?

when you see a giant rocking horse
you rock

her hair and shoes
I totally covet
oh...and her eyes, too

walking around the pond eating gelato

signing the cottage guest book

posing for me because I asked
~
smiling and laughing because that's what she does best
waiting for our lunch at lazy jane's

I know there should be a part two to my part one
but right now you'll have to forgive me for being out of words
~~
I think all the smiling and laughing I did these past few days
did something to my ability to think straight
or
even see straight for that matter
~~
I know
most of you are laughing right now at the thought of me
"chatty cathy"
being out of words
but it's true
~~
I can only hope you know how much these past few days have meant to me

Hi BETH, BEAUTIFUL, just sneaking a moment at my sisters to say hi and tell you I am thinking about you.
Actually, I clicked over here partially because I didn't want to face posting about my big weekend because I can't seem to find the words... how fortuitous you just summed up my thinking! Thanks for making me feel like its okay.
I think your pictures tell the tale quite well :) I so want to go to lazy jane's now too...
So much fun!!! Super photos.
I wish we could do it all over again this weekend, Beth... thank you for making it one of the best I've had in a long time. Not only for letting me crash at your house, but our lunch, photos, shopping, and just being together. A perfect ending to a perfect weekend...xoxox

I don't know what Lazy Jane's is like but I do know lunching with friends is a lot of fun!! Smiles, laughter and chatting makes the time pass very quickly.
Looks like TERRIFIC fun, Beth...perfect! :o)
Yesterday I admitted it ... today I'll say it again ... yep, me, jealous! Wonderful!
Mattress jumping! That looks like so much fun!
I'm a bit of a strange anomoly...a woman who isn't that crazy about shoes, but....those are really cute shoes!!
Glad you had such a happy time :)
Love these photos :-) The happiness that friendship brings is wonderful
Ever since reading part 1 of your retreat, I've been wanting to go on one. But where? and how do I find out?

I remember the joy you shared with us last year after Squam. How I wish I'd gone to your art retreat. I'm not sure I would have come home! What smiles and happiness! What joy you shared. And the fun is contagious!

I'm new to your blog, came over from Westra World...
I've just soaked up your beautiful photos but for some reason when I got to these I was brought to tears. No idea why but I love the shots of the women...
Beautiful Blog...Robin
