Family Heirlooms

The last month has been really ...sensitive. It's been all about family, friends, and remembering B. I've been very lucky to spend 3 out of 4 weekends with my family, and trying to catch up with friends in nights in between. I've also been trying to get our house back in order- while trying to bring in every little thing I managed to 'sneak' into
our house of B's ; They mean so much to me.




A desk she bought me in first grade- that later went on to 'live' in her townhouse
She painted this last spring.
  (It still obviously needs decorated and pictures in frames- though that large photo is B and Poppy's wedding photo!)





 the rocking chair that she rocked all of her babies in


 her engagement ring and wedding band



The trunk that was @ the foot of her bed- we made into a coffee table


 her sewing machine

&
A LOT of her stylin' Ralph Lauren sweaters and polos, books, a book shelf, old pictures, her 'mink' (that Sue Sue is having shortened for me as we speak), baking wear etc etc. It's still so hard to think that she's gone, but out of the five stages of grief...I think I'm just @ sadness. She was an amazing women, and I'm so thankful that I got to spend 28 years of my life with her.
