These gorgeous flowers were at the grocery store tonight. I absolutely love tulips so I stopped to smell them and take a picture of them. I was explaining to the boys how much I love tulips and Colm asked me how much they were. They were $7.99. Colm was then trying to get Liam to pool their allowance money together so they could buy the flowers for Sean. Hmmmm…let me get this straight. I just told you how much I love them and how they are my most favorite flower ever and you want to spend your allowance money so you can buy them for your dad? There’s some logic in their somewhere, I just haven’t found it yet.

There is a long hedge of bushes near the boys’ school that is beautiful and fragrant this time of year. The only problem is that it draws so many bees that the sound of the bees is audible. I am not sure that this was the best type of bush to plant near an elementary school where there are many, many children walking near these bushes every single day.
This remote control helicopter was doing a great job of keeping Colm entertained during Liam’s baseball practice…until it ran out of batteries. 🙁
My friend, Christie, was in town for a conference and since people might frown on her bringing her sweet pup, Luke, to the meeting she was at, we got to watch him for the afternoon. The boys loved taking him for a walk since our sweet pup is too old to go on long walks anymore.
Liam and Colm had a violin concert tonight. There is normally an informal reception afterwards that usually consists of donut holes, fruit snacks, some juice boxes and whatever else people can throw together. Tonight, however, we had a special reception after their concert to celebrate the upcoming wedding of their violin teacher. She was very surprised and the food was great.
