Easter 2024

We dyed eggs at midnight.





We think Maggie is so fluffy it looks like she has on a big poofy dress.

We used our paper eggs to decorate for Easter morning.

Ally got squishmellows of her cats from the Easter Bunny.

Lots of eggs to look for.



Cloey was interested in the eggs

Cereal in the eggs is a tradition for us.

Easter pajamas!

Kimn and Beth came over for Easter supper and we celebrated with a Rice Krispie Peep for dessert.

It was a good day.

The rest of March 2024

Ally had her final club volleyball tournament of the season. No more volleyball until camp this summer and then school team in the Fall.

Spring Break Part 3

Doctors appointments, college visits, TV watching and some organizing. Week 3 is in the books. Ally heads back to school on Tuesday.

Ally asked for a large wall mounted makeup mirror for her vanity. 

It was a team effort. 

She’s pretty happy with it.

And spent the rest of the evening in her room snuggling with Daisy.

Outfit picture!

We watched the Academy Awards together. Billie Eilish is always so impressive.



Ally and I drove to NY to visit Syracuse University. We spent the night at my friend Michelle’s house. So good to see her but of course I forgot to take a picture of us.

Inside the O Dome

Beautiful day on a beautiful campus. Ally loved it.



She loved it so much we came home with a sweatshirt!

Later in the week we all drove to UMass Amherst for a tour there. Turns out we were not fans of this school.

And Ally was happy to get home and be with her cats.

Time to go back to school! 

Spring Break Week 2

Ally and I headed to NYC on Sunday. Traveling with cats is a lot of work but also fun.

Daisy and Maggie piled into their carrier.

We ordered pizza for our first night. It was cheap and delicious and a nice way to unwind after the drive into the city.

The cats made themselves right at home.

Ally really liked Fordham. 

Back in our room, Maggie really liked looking out the window.

We woke up to lots of rain. 

But we decided to brave it and do some shopping on Fifth Avenue.



After a stop at the Nike Store we made our way to Ally’s favorite place to shop, Sephora. We shop at Sephora all over; Miami, LA, Boston, NYC. It was nice to get out of the rain for a while.

We decided we were too wet and cold to even browse Tiffany’s flagship store. But Ally humored me for a picture. 

We talked about going out for dinner and eating in a restaurant but all Ally really wanted was pizza from her favorite NYC place, Joe’s. They opened a shop in Harvard Square so we can get it at home now, but it just tastes better in NYC.

The forecast was pretty crummy so we decided to head home a day early. We were not in the mood for museums and it was too overcast for any of the observation decks we planned to visit. And honestly, home was a good decision. We were ready.

So after another nonstop drive, it’s 3.5 hours nonstop we arrived home. 


Ally had work on Friday and Saturday, and here she is checking out the brochure from Syracuse. We have a tour scheduled there this week.

Saturday Ally also had a volleyball tournament and Sunday she met up with a friend at the mall.
