There’s no denying that we have been singing a lot of karaoke lately, but on Memorial Day we sang for a good cause. We gathered with a few friends on Monday at a nearby nursing home and helped put on a little show for the residents and their families. We sang our usual Beatles favorites. It felt so good to be able to be there and help make others happy. We look forward to going back and helping out whenever we can.
Yesterday was little Andrew’s 2nd birthday. Our family gathered with gifts and tons of delicious food. We all battled through the humidity and bug bites and had a really good time catching up. When we first met, almost eight years ago, everyone was at such different points in their lives. Some people were just meeting, others just getting married and now there are little babies running around. We still get excited every time we see our nephew and cousin playing together.

…we’ve been enjoying lately:
By the time Friday came rolling around we just needed to relax. Sometimes it’s a little too easy to get lost in the shuffle and to forget to appreciate the little things. Cooking dinner together on Saturday night was just what we needed. (And when you follow a cook book step by step, it’s easy to get it right.) It’s nice to work together…
She starts to boil the water while he takes out all of the ingredients.
He sets the table while she makes the sauce (and he taste-tests it).
She serves the food as he puts on some of their favorite jazz songs.
He washes the pots while she dries them.
Spending a lot of time at home together isn’t too shabby when you’re engaged to your best friend.
Every year we try to get to a baseball game with our family. Yesterday we spent Cinco de Mayo at Citi Field. It’s becoming a tradition that every time we go to a Met game, the sun decides to hide on us. That didn’t spoil our fun, but who wouldn’t have fun on Tom Seaver bobble head day?
It’s been pretty quiet around here lately, but that’s not always a bad thing!
