MEMORIAL DAY BATH




It was a relaxing long weekend at the Simons'. We saw several movies, cleaned out the garage and closets, and of course gave Zeke and Zoe' their holiday bath. Zoe' wins the gold star for behavior during the bath. Zeke just does not like to get a bath in the jacuzzi!
Yesterday the Roses, Solashs and Jason's family came over for a late afternoon cook out. It was a warm day with no rain.
Maury is counting the days down until the last day of 1st session summer school. I can't wait for the next two month to pass then on for a three week vacation to Spain and Portugal. It is long and overdue!

MOTHER'S DAY 2007












We had another great Mother's Day weekend. On Saturday, Jason, Meredith, and Amelia drove down from Charlotte to Columbia and we drove from Raleigh with Zeke and Zoe'. We shared a couple of meals together and went to visit "MaMaMa" (a new name for Great Grandma Emily) at Steel Hopes. Everyone loved her new home. It was a beautiful day with lots of new flowers in bloom! Amelia especially loved making wishes and throwing penneys in MaMaMa's fountain in front of her "Mansion". The puppies earned another trip to Jane's and Peter's house as they were "pretty good"....even though Zoe' had one little mistake and Zeke ate part of a bag of "Life Savers". We also missed having Aaron and Caren close by.
