Annabelle can’t keep her hands off of my camera. She loves to take pictures. I’m hoping to find her some local photography courses. I can only teach her to point and click – that’s about the extent of my knowledge. She loves it and wants to learn more and I always find these fabulous shots on my camera which make my day:

After a wonderfully, relaxing weekend in Breck I dropped my family off at home and then headed down to Cherry Creek to meet my dear friend Eleanor. All the gals met up the previous night for dinner and although I was bummed to miss them, I was selfishly happy to have a delicious lunch with Eleanor all to myself. 

We sipped martinis and enjoyed some yummy wraps and were able to talk. Yes, talk. Moms of two kids and we were able to just sit and talk. Yes, it was just as lovely as it sounds. I could have stayed all day. 

I adore Eleanor and her family and I’m always so thrilled when we have opportunities to get together. Annabelle tends to be at dance and is growing quite resentful of her exclusion – we will work on that this summer.  But isn’t it just wonderful to have lunch with a fabulous friend and not worry if you packed crayons or have to take someone to the bathroom as soon as your drink has arrived? It is. It is wonderful. I suppose because it is rare we cherish it more, but I wouldn’t be sad if we made it a priority.
