old and new

 Miles received his silver cup last week.  An old tradition carried on by a new generation.  My parents have generously continued the tradition of giving their grandchildren a silver cup with the child's monogram.  I wrote the story of Fiona's cup when she received it.  I can't wait until Miles can really use it and cherish it as the rest of us.  He is growing so fast and showing lots of personality.  Happy two months to my funny little man!

resemblances


Oh my goodness!  Can you believe how much these kids look alike?  Two sets of two!

girly things



When Nana comes to visit we take some time to do things just us girls.  This time it was making jam.  Jars and jars of jam.  Thanks to a visit to the farmer's market and the commissary we had a half bushel of peaches, several pints of blueberries and a few pints of raspberries.  So the three of us worked for two days to turn that into jars of beautiful, tasty jam and wonderful memories.
