Remembering Judy

Dear Diary,
What a beautiful day to celebrate Judy Scallon.  Jane and The Banken's joined us at the old Malaga Cove School to picnic and fly kites in Judy's honor.  She was so special to all of us.  We miss her beautiful smile and kind and loving heart.  She was a Jewel!  Which most people called her.  She cared so much for our family and we had a deep love for her.  It was the perfect day to be with Jane and look up to Heaven knowing that Judy is always with us.

A little play time!

Ended the afternoon with a water gun fight!

Dating My Husband

Dear Diary,
It's been nice lately to step out of the day to day hustle and enjoy a little time with my man.  We spent the evening celebrating a friend and neighbors 40th birthday.  I'm glad that we're both open and take the time to get dressed up and enjoy each others company.  Making time together is a chance to de-stress, laugh and chat like we did when we were dating.  It's refreshing, fun and a great way to reconnect with each other.
