life lately: cape cod!

Photobucket

I'm back!!!  Actually, I got back on Saturday night, but I've been busy enjoying a relaxing reentry on Sunday and not-so-much enjoying my reentry into the office on Monday, so I haven't had time for blogging.  The Cape was lovely, as always, even if our crowd was a little smaller than it has been in recent years (K couldn't come because of class--boo, my brother Colin left after a couple of days--he hates the beach, and my brother Jonathan's girlfriend stayed only the first (rainy) weekend--she had to work).  Still, it was nice and relaxing and full of food and drinks and Bananagrams and Trivial Pursuit, and even though it rained for the first half of the week, we were treated with lots of glorious sunshine for the second half and ended on a high note.

in which it is a cloudy may

Photobucket

This little sweaterdress is one of my go-to items on cold, cloudy days.  I must say, it's not feeling much like May around here.

I've been kind of at a loss for what to do with myself without a project in progress.  I've been watching a lot of unsatisfying movies.  I think that probably means it's either time to (a) start a new dress, or (b) work on my new novel.  Hopefully tonight I can do something actually productive with my life.

Also: Happy Birthday to the Best Mom Ever!

in which i am a flowery field for an easter bunny frolic

Photobucket

This is what I wore for Easter Sunday.  I bought the dress a while ago, knowing that it would be perfect for the spring holiday, and it was! (Even though the weather was not-so-warm.)

K wanted to show me this abandoned old house on our way through Montpelier, so we stopped in on our way to my parents' house.  I thought it made a pretty great photo location, especially when we discovered there were rabbits everywhere!  How funny!

We had a really lovely Easter with my family, eating and eating (and walking) and eating.
