I am quite happy today. Not that I haven't been recently. I'm generally a pretty happy person, but today...today just felt a little different...and it's only halfway over. :)
My little doll. The twins went back to school yesterday. We miss them. I'll tell you what though...Molly has been talking. Non-stop. She no longer has to compete for my attention. She has me all to herself. All day. And I have her. I can already see a tiny change in attitude. In just 2 days. She said to Daddy today...I say no, no, NO to my Mommy. We had a little discussion about it. At least she can acknowledge her faults. :) She is really into saying THANK-YOU. She will ask me questions incessantly, and every time I say YES, she says thank you...in the teeniest, most delicious little voice.
These are peaches I picked a few minutes ago. They came from our very own tree. It's hard for me to believe we got such amazing fruit without having to go anywhere. These things are great! The birds think so too...and my neighbors. :) I could have filled this basket 10 times with all that we got! They are so sweet and SO juicy...just not free-stone. Oh well, that's life.
Dave and I ate at
Magleby's today. I had a gift card that he gave me for my birthday...and it was hollering at me. I love everything about the place...namely their breadsticks and this cake. My good friends, the Bouchards, bring me some of the rolls quite often after they go there. They've got inside connections. :) The cake...oh my gosh...I don't even know what to say. Homemade...daily. Melts in your mouth. Perfect mix of chocolate and vanilla. Heavy, dense, moist. I've gotta go take a bite...Bought a small sheet cake (about 7x9 inches). It's in the fridge getting even more dense. I will eat it. All by myself. Happy late birthday to me. :)
The next Bachelor. JASON. I actually teared up when I heard this today. Michelle called me as soon as her friend Megan called her. She knew the joy I would feel...and dang, was she right? Yippe-yi-yay! Do I seriously have to wait until January?
The icing on the cake. My great friend
Brittany is coming in town this weekend. Yeehah!

*Giggles* I can feel your happiness! Peaches, Cake, Molly... all look yummy!
Great pictures Amy and I'm glad today is even a little better than your normal good day. I know the difference when it happens to me. I'm jealous of your peaches. We've got about 5 apple tress and about 1000 of them rotting on our ground. I don't know what the crud to do with them?? I've got some things to learn. The kids are back at school already? I bet though that this alone time with Molly is going to be so memorable for both of you. Sounds like it already is.
