Maisie & Elam

IMG_4222e2 Back in April on our transatlantic cruise, Maisie met a boy named Elam and the two of them spent hours each day playing and laughing together.  They had so much fun together and were basically inseparable, sad each time they had to part and very sad on the final day of the cruise when they had to go their separate ways.  Maisie would love seeing Elam everyday but as he lives halfway across the country it’s just not possible but yesterday he and his Mom were in Atlanta so they came to visit and they spent the night at our home.

Miaisie and Elam eNeedless to say, I had one very excited and happy little girl as Maisie and Elam had a great day together.  They played mini golf & enjoyed some cool treats to cool off.

IMG_4973eWith all their activities what they mostly did was giggle and laugh.  Too bad that Elam & Maisie live so far from one another as they really enjoy being pals. 

IMG_4999eThis morning Maisie got up very early to bid farewell to her friend as he had an early morning flight home.  As Elam & Julie drove off Maisie said that she couldn’t wait until the next time they’re together.  After her busy day yesterday, super late night night and waking up for a crack of dawn farewell breakfast Maisie crashed out this afternoon and as I’m typing this post she’s catching up on some much needed sleep.   Thanks Elam & Julie for a fun and giggly visit, we can’t wait for the next one.

I haven’t mentioned it much but our garden is growing gang busters so today I’m featuring my Zucchini & Spinach Lasagna which is perfect for fresh from the garden veggies and beyond delicious.  Click on over to Cook Lisa Cook for the recipe.
