The Friday Five Faves Edition - Vol. 8

I have a whole lot of favorite things today. I'm a "do-re-mi" away from singing My Favorite Things from The Sound of Music.

"Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things"

I've compiled a top 5 a la My Favorite Things, plus one line:

1) Back and front yards full of plush green grass. I promise to show you pictures of the back yard once the dirt dries from all the thunder storms. I didn't want to carry Zoe through the mud last night.



2) Taking my Zoe to Shrimp Kipper Class. I love the YMCA. They have a fabulous facility and great teachers. Zoe and I both love it.

3) Unpacking boxes full of my dishes made of glass. I cannot tell you how nice it is to have "my stuff" again. I forgot how much I missed my Fiestaware.

4) While learing the new celebrity baby names. Zuma Nestor Rock Rossdale? Really? Where they sitting around their London flat, the baby kicked her rib, Gwen shrieked ZUMA and they settled on that name? Then decided that wasn't enough, so they decided to add Nestor and Rock to it because that completed the flow? Do these people not realize the child will live with that name FOREVER! They're almost like the Zappa family for the new millenium.

Without the LSD.

5) And putting pictures into frames. My favorite thing to decorate with is pictures. I love seeing our family's memories as I go through our house. To me that makes it a home. I've found two boxes full of framed pictures. It's so much fun looking through them all again. I can't wait to replace those pictures with more recent ones. Zoe isn't 3 pounds anymore!

These are a few of my favorite things! Happy Friday!
