Lovely Spring Day

 Another week has gone by.
 The Famous Anonymous had surgery in the hospital very, very early on Thursday morning  and came home the same day and is fine. She was even allowed to go to her senior banquet a few hours after. She came right out of the general anesthesia and headed on to her activities after a relatively short stay in recovery.
 She graduates from high school on Monday.
Later in the morning, the Little had her 4th grade awards program and will be moving on to the 5th-6th grade school next. It's a  bitter sweet time for the 4th graders to leave their little school. She received a certificate for being a school safety monitor and for being in the band.
She was so worried about her big sister though and was relieved when the surgery was over.

These photos are from Thursday afternoon and are taken in my neighborhood once again.
I am joining in with Friday Foto Friends and Skywatch Friday this week as usual.

Skies by the bay were blue with wispy clouds
It was  windy by the water today but nice and warm with very little humidity



The back of my head as I watch the sky

A tiny island in the bay

Backyards



Evening settles in ... and the Little's blonde curls making an appearance. Lots of back of head shots lately.

  1. Fantastic, scenic shots. It looks like you've had some wonderful weather. My kind of day anyway, sunny and windy with no humidity, lol. I'm glad your eldest girl came through surgery okay. It always amazes me how one can have day surgery and be out and about the same day. Congrats to both your girls as they've both achieved milestones and are on their way to bigger things :-) Enjoy your weekend Annie.

  2. As always wonderful photos Annie. I think my favorites are the one with the back of your head and the last one with The Little's golden curls watching the sunset. Congratulations on both your grands on their graduations and thankful prayers on The Famous Anonymous kid's surgery. Have a blessed day and weekend my friend.

    2. Your grands? All this time I thought they were your daughters! Now I'm so confused...but love your little family whether they live in your house or next door. Praying graduation went well today for the Famous Anonymous, esp. after having surgery. Also hoping your roof leak is better...been praying for that as well. Blessings to you dear friend...loved the pictures. I thought about you when we were in Maine, esp. at Old Orchard Beach and area. Just made me think of you.

  6. Your photos!!! They are stunning as always. I so enjoy looking at them and think what a great place to live. Glad to read the news of the Famous Anonymous and congratulations on the upcoming graduation. Is the Little going to middle school now? Congratulations also to her on moving up to the next grade. (Grandson Jack tells me his isn't official until he is actually IN the second grade when school starts. A mere technicality.)

    1. In our community school goes from kindergarten to 4th, then a school for 5-6 and then middle school is 7-8. High school picks up for 9-12.
