Good Morning, Readers!
And a good SUNDAY morning to you, at that!
It was such a jam packed week,
filled start to finish with endings
that lead to new beginnings.
Weeks such as this evoke memories
that lead to all the feels.
I'm feeling them all as I recollect
on this rare Sunday morning writing session.
The sky demanded attention this week.
The moon in the blue-hued sky
hung low over the vineyard
and produced a golden glow.
Earlier that same day
I watched a storm move in at lunchtime.
The rest of the week
the weather was sunshine and rainbows.
Particularly after the fog
cleared at Shades Beach.
It was an eerie scene on Lake Erie
as we checked out the new conversation piece on the beach.
Our resident Birthday Princess was the first in the family
to sit on the giant beach throne.
They both celebrated birthdays this week
making for a very Happy House.
Natalie couldn't decide on a cake so we bought both,
and purchased a little chocolate one for good measure.
Natalie was extra happy as she spent her birthday afternoon
doing something she really loves:
painting!
Natalie loves to paint!
She helped paint this Mother's Day planting pot
representing each of my children's birth flowers.
Natalie--lily of the valley
Ellen--morning glory
Sam--daffodil
We will definitely keep an eye out
for more community activities like this one.
High Praise to Harborcreek!
The painted pavers were placed
near my newbie-greenhouse.
my dream greenhouse soon,
but after I spend more time mastering
the art of working with seedlings.
It is going to be spectacular.
Stay tuned.
Can you guess which artwork
belongs each Lamp Poster?

As I recollect on the school week,
I remember now why I averaged 17,000 steps per day.
Aquapod rockets and parachute designs
made for a fun week of learning.
The Coffee of the Week was this one,
and boy was it good!
And much needed!
The Huskies played two intense playoff games this week.
The first in our favor:
Here is Sam giving a post game acknowledgement
to the big kid from Girard
that he hit with a pitch.
I'm sure #30 will remember in September,
when they meet again on the football field.
The second game did not go our way,
Sam, Jake, and the Huskie Hit Squad
have run off the field for the last time this season.
The game went our way for five innings,
and as it happens in baseball sometimes,
one inning got unruly.
If there was a way to rewind time
and have a redo.
Until that is possible,
Eloise will prove this a lie.
The tears turned to smiles
the very next day
as we celebrated Louie's induction into the
Bowling Hall of Fame.
The ceremony at Lawrence Park Golf Club
was a lovely honor to those
who have made notable accomplishments to the sport.
There is so much to offer in the sport of bowling
and we urge anyone interested to consider trying it,
no matter your age,
experience,
or ability level.
Contact us and we will gladly
head out to the lanes with you.
This beautiful shot of the setting sun
calls forth memories of a day completed.
We also celebrate a career completed
as Louie has chosen to retire early,
and help with the A Team full time.
Natalie and Erik are happy to have a driver,
walker,
shopper,
and mover and shaker
available at all times to help them out when needed.
Congratulations, Louie!
The students of North East will miss
your fun teaching style.
Your colleagues will miss your lightheartedness
at a time when the world of education
has become ever so difficult.
The kids and I will be happy to have you home.
