When you find yourself appreciating something – at any time, or even multiple times, in a week – I hope you will try to capture it in a note, photograph or any form that strikes your fancy, and send it to us. If you get it to us each Thursday at 5pm it will be included in the next day’s post. (See left side bar for the link to send your submissions.) See this week’s entries below.
If you missed getting in your submission earlier in the week, but would like to chime in now, please leave a comment below! I can’t wait to hear what you are appreciating!

This week I’m appreciating that we got to celebrate the birthday of “Poppy Hoot” (Doug’s dad) with “baby sea turtle” cupcakes that Griffin made special for him!

I am appreciating our two-week long sojourn to NY. We started with a few days in the City with just my husband, kids and I. From there, we headed to my in-laws where my husband’s siblings were gathering for a reunion/celebration. My in-laws live on a property with 8 other families (one of which is my sister-in-law) who communally own 250 acres of amazingness!. A quick walk down a grassy path and we were swimming in their huge and warm pond; a longer walk and we had access to outrageous rock-climbing….all on their property. Add to that the collected talents of the family (several wonderful cooks, an accomplished pastry chef, many musicians, etc., etc.) and the delightful company of everyone…it’s been a full and lovely week!! Photo’ed here, my kids with some of their cousins (there are 8 grandchildren in all). So much fun!!
