Getting my Bearings

We are finally home! After flying to London to Monaco to Morocco to London and finally making our way to Oxford, we are glad to finally be home after a wonderful trip!

After a long time away, I am getting my bearings on being back at home. I started the morning off with a nice walk around the neighborhood as well as spending some time watering my plants, which are doing well despite my absence. 


Thanks to the rain in Dallas during our trip, I was pleased to find that our roses are also in full bloom! 


I picked up a few treasures for our house while on our trip, including this candle from our stay in Morocco...


...another candle from the Double Decker Festival in Oxford, MS (where we visited Annie)...


...and finally this F door "wreath" for the front of our house!


Later this week, I'll show you a few more things I picked up on my trip! Until then, we will be enjoying being home again!

Hello from Morocco

Sorry for the length of time since our last post! We have been traveling quite a bit this month, from New York to Austin to Monaco to London and now to Morocco (all thanks to Rodney's work)! I wanted to pop in just to give you all a peek at our hotel here in Marrakesh, Morocco.

Greeted with a letter, flowers, and fruit!

Thanks for checking in with us... I promise regular posting will return as soon as we do! :)

Happy Driveway

After returning home from our weekend in Austin with Molly, I spent a few hours playing outside with our neighbors' kids. As you may know, every time I walk outside of our house, I hear "Mrs. Tracy!" coming from our next-door neighbor's yard. It has been so fun getting to know those kids and their friends who come over to visit.

Yesterday, we played outside of our house, drawing pictures on the sidewalk with chalk, playing school at our front porch table, and swinging on the porch swing. Here are a few of the sweet pictures the kids drew:

Rainbow and Sun

Spongebob

Angry Catepillar

Our Yellow House

I have loved getting to spend time with the kids who live on both sides of us! At one point yesterday, there were 9 kids playing in our yard! It is just another thing I love about living in this neighborhood.
