I took myself out for tea & wandering on my birthday

I bought myself a few kitchen & knitting goodies

I received a wonderful package of swap goodies from my friend Dory




Even something for the girls

Oh, and those flowers? Sam snuck out of the house at 6:00 am on Mother's Day to go shopping with his crew, and brought me these



There was Grad Night at Disneyland, the annual Tennis Banquet (guess who was team captain?), a close shave through finals (I swear I aged 5 years), and then the arrival of the whole clan for graduation

Robb & Jessica stayed all week, so we did some exploring:
Yosemite
Muir Woods
Since then, it has been 10-hour days at work~ half of it catching up, the other half semi-annual reporting deadlines. The light is beginning to glimmer at the end of the tunnel, and while the job situation is still pretty bleak, we have exciting things in the works for the whole family.
I'll leave you with this for now~ my handsome sons
