Don't Bother Me... I'm Reading

I have lots to say. Really. A million thoughts, ideas, recommendations swirling in my head. But I can't stop to share them. I'm actually reading. Finally. But why can't I do everything at once? Like keep my house sparkling clean, apply my creative talent to decorating projects galore, fix scrumptious meals for my husband (and children who don't appreciate them), guide my sons through vast worlds of knowledge, nurture their little (disobedient) souls, share all my wisdom and insight (cough. cough.) with the blog-reading world, AND devour books? Nope. Not capable of doing it all. So I'll content myself with basking in each season as it comes, knowing another is right around the corner.

While you're waiting for my read-fest to wane (if you are), you can enjoy my mom's stunning photos of her trip to France on the two-year anniversary of her travels with my sister, Shannon.

Anyone attending the Shrewsbury Renaissance Faire tomorrow?

I was blown away by your mothers pictures from France. It is decided. I must go there.

Wouldn't it be nice to really be able to do it all?!?!?

We are going on Sunday. We wanted to get some stuff done around the house. Life has been so busy we haven't been home much. Turns out friends are moving so Sat we are helping them instead. But sunday after church we are heading up there. I am excited because it will lead into our history for this year.

Hooray for reading.

Of course, I do expect you to share some titles at some point. :)

I can't wait to hear what you're reading (reviews... please??!)--- I'm already compiling my 2010 book list and I need more titles... and thus far I've *thorougly* enjoyed every recommendation you've passed along :)

Enjoy your books, enjoy your weekend... and please, please share when you're done!

I have been enjoying your mom's photos - so gorgeous.

I didn't even know the Shrewsbury Ren Faire existed. I must be living on the wrong side of the Valley. ;)

I did know about the Portland Pirate Festival going on during those same days though.
