Hiking with my honey!




While Goose and Binky were in summer camp today, Daddy and I went on a 4 hour hike through the woods!! It was amazing! I have always wanted to bring him here and today was perfect. The kids and I spend a lot of time in Muir Woods. It is one of my favorite places in the world! The weather was perfect! It could not have been a better day!! I am still grinning! Oh, and the kids had a great time at summer camp, too! They are worn out! It will be an early night for all of us!

Thank You!!!!!

Thank you so much for all of the lovely birthday wishes!!!! Each one made me smile!
I spent part of the day here at the Berkeley Rose Gardens. This is one of my favorite places! It is also a favorite for weddings.


I usually visit a little earlier in the season when the whole garden is bursting with roses.

But there were still some real beauties to admire!


I love the colors of these roses!! It's like they are on fire!



This one was my favorite of the day!

Oh, and there were bees on almost every flower!

The colors were just amazing!





Maybe I went a little overboard on pictures, but I couldn't help myself!
Thank you again for the sweet birthday wishes!

Today is my 37th birthday!
This is a photo from last year when I received my Reiki Master certificate.
My teacher, William Lee Rand, was great!
And, so, on my 37th birthday, I am thinking about my life and its purpose.
Yes, I am a mother, wife, teacher, student, but there is something that has been calling me for most of my life. And that something is healing.
Friends and family have always come to me with their health issues, as if they knew I could help them. In my twenties I just went with it and seemed to know what they needed. After discovering Reiki, I realized I had an awareness of other people's health.
So...
I, along with my Mom, will be teaching my first Reiki class to my kids and their friends later this summer. I am very excited!
Today is my 37th birthday I am still waiting to feel like a grown-up!
Joyfull wishes to all!!
