Lazy Summer

Hi all! Sorry for the large time gap between posts. I've been a little caught up in the lazy days of summertime. Tom & I have been taking roads trips to Rhode Island & the Jersey shore. We've tasted lots of clam cakes & chowder. It hasn't all been fun in the sun. Some work was accomplished.

The cookbook recipes are done on my end. There are only a couple left sitting in the hands of some dear friends, waiting to be tested. I've been working on all of the stories & even began gathering old family photos for the book. My grandparents, mom, Tom & I really had a good time looking over a huge box of pics. We found everything from photos of Momma & Poppa on their wedding day, partying in Hawaii in the 70's, my mom & aunts in their Sunday hats in the early 60's & of course, all of us grandkids. My grandmother really was a babe in her younger years & Poppa was not too bad himself. Speaking of my family - it's ever growing. Twin boys were born on Sunday. Christopher & Matthew weighed in at just over a healthy 7lbs each!

Mrs. M - I've heard of Bradley Beach, but have never been.
Hope, I loved some of the prints on the image sheet you sent me. I'm just waiting until I'm at that point to decide on the layout, etc.

Hi, Dawn! Sounds like you're having a good summer. Glad to hear the cookbook project is rolling along. I was at my mother's in Vegas last week...helped her sort through decades of old photos. Sometimes it's fun to look back... :) Congrats on the twins!
