Hi~

I noticed that no one asked for The Instruction by Ainslie MacLeod in my Give Away post. I bought his book after I watched him on Oprah's Soul Series here. I am hoping someone wants his book so you will read it and we can discuss it.

I just re-read A Million Little Pieces by James Frey. I loved it just as much as I did the first time. It is a good book. There are these amazing similiarities in the way James describes his love for Lily and how Stephenie Meyer describes Edward's love for Bella. It would be so cool for another Twilight fan to read A Million Little Pieces and tell me what you think.

Don't be shy about asking for stuff......I am excited about sending my stuff to you!

Keep commenting on the Give Away post. I will close comments Saturday night.

In the meantime you can find me at my new home...

Thank! XO, Melba

all around

Last Tuesday Sean and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary.

We went to a movie and to my favorite place for drinks and tapas.

Then this past weekend we went to Boston. Friday night we saw Death Cab for Cutie in concert. They were Amazing even though they didn't play what sarah said. They did play Transatlantism. It was so nice to go to a concert. I was worried I would feel old and uncomfortable, but we had a great time.

Saturday we went to the Museum of Science.

Maggie and Sean in the butterfly garden; Maggie's favorite place. Ethan had to leave ~ the butterflies freak him out!

and Sunday we went apple picking.

Ethan in his new sweater his Nana made for him. It is beautiful, but he wanted to change half way through the day into his stripped sweater his Nana made for him last year.

Lots of family fun!

I am in a bit of lazy mood since Sean is off all week. I just want to sit and listen to music and play and day dream.

I will catch up with you all soon!
