Memorial Day Fun

May has been unbelievably busy...Mother's Day, yard work, birthdays, end of school parties and exams starting tomorrow!!! What else can we possibly pack in. Oh yeah, this is a holiday weekend. I almost forgot. I guess a cook out is in order for Monday - right. Well, the price of gas will certainly keep us from traveling. My youngest daughter will be Nine tomorrow and we will have a little party for her. Got a new trampoline and blow up pool for lots of girly fun!!! Happy weekend!

Downtown Burlington

You may have heard about the plan to revitalize downtown Burlington, but have you seen the plan. You can by logging onto the Downtown Corporation's website. At www.burlingtondowntown.com there are several photos, the diagram of intentions as well as the actual plan written by the firm that was hired to study our area. Check it out!

Among other things that you may not know about downtown...The "Firefly on Spring Street" is a great new clothing store. It is certainly a welcome addition to Burlington as well as the downtown area. The mother/daughter combo that own and operate the business have a great eye for fun clothing, shoes, jewelry and handbags.

With National Bike Week coming up this month it is very important to notice the new "J&L Bicycle" Shop down the street. They will be sponsoring several events this month that include a ladies ride on Sundays and info about riding your bike to work!!!
