Happy Spring, Happy Girl!



Shirley, Steve's step-mother is here to visit for a few weeks. She arrived on Wednesday from England, and will be here until mid-month when she leaves to go to North Carolina and then will return here for a week befrore leaving to go back to England. We've been having a great time, but I feel so bad that we don't have the flexibility to go out and do all of the things we'd like to do with her, since we have a nearly-two year old whose schedule we have to follow! Today we took her to visit Sammi's little beaux, Matthew, and Michelle & Brian (Matty was sure to plant quite a smooch on Samantha's cheek before we left, and Samantha absolutely loved it!). Unfortunately, Samantha is taking her time warming up to Grandma, as she does with everyone she doesn't see every day. She'll probably get used to her right when she leaves for North Carolina, and we'll have to start from scratch when she gets back!
We had a wonderful afternoon in Old Town Alexandria yesterday, where Steve snapped this shot (finally, I get to be in one of the photos!).

Well, I've gotten my very first blog spam. Unfortunately, I am unable to delete it. As a result, I have set posts to be moderated by me before they actually get posted, and I've created a word verification. Please let me know if this causes any problems for any of you!

Thanks!

That picture is SO cute!

You must be moving up in the world. Blog spam! I haven't gotten any blog spam.

Hope all is well. Miss you!
