Me

At first, this post was going to be about how I needed some inspiration in life, so I ordered these things...My signature Fall scent, Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin from Bath and Body Works, a new Gooseberry Patch cookbook about Autumn and an Apple Strudel candle.  It's like 104 outside right now and I'm gearing up for the Fall in Mix and Match Mama world, so I need to be inspired by my favorite things.Just looking at my bounty makes me cooler.After...

The Great Wolf Lodge

Last week, when I was in Boston, Andrew took the kids to the Great Wolf Lodge for two nights.  I must stop here and say that Andrew truly is a fabulous father.  I won't gush much but seriously, skipping work for two days to take your 3 and 2 year olds to a hotel and water park...pretty awesome if you ask me.  He sent me some i-Phone pics as their little trip progressed, so now I'm sharing them with you.  (A few of them won't rotate...

One on Fifteen Date

Last night on TV, Sean had a one on one date...last night in real life, he had a one on fifteen date with me and some of my friends.  What a good sport he is!  At the beginning of the season, I asked if he would come to my house the night of his first one on one date with Emily and watch the episode with me and my friends...he did not let me down.  He took a ton of pictures and answered most of their questions (some of these girls...

Boston Brick

On Thursday, Dad and I made our annual trip to Boston to see a couple of Red Sox games.  I don't know if there is another weekend I look more forward to all year long.  This year, was particularly special because it is the 100 anniversary of Fenway Park...the oldest and most historic ball park ever.  To honor the anniversary, Fenway Park sold bricks last summer that would be added to Gates B and C and remain a part of Red Sox history...
