Girls' Night Out

I'm having a girls' night out with Missy J. tonight! We already hit the Ruby Tuesday's, the hot tub and the pool! Next up...cheese cake. Then pedicures! Sometimes, boy mamas need a night to hang with eachother. :) Thanks Missy! Love you!

I ♥ Faces "Blue"

I ♥ Faces is having a "Blue" photo challenge this week.  I couldn't think of a better picture than this Marine in his dress blues.  This picture was taken shortly after his first tour in Iraq. Thanks again Cpl.  We are so proud of you and can hardly grasp the man you have become.

Go check out some other "Blue" entries at I ♥ Faces !

I ♥ Faces “Completely Candid”

I'm joining in the fun and entering this picture of Regan in the "Completely Candid" photo contest at I ♥ Faces .  I just love how she looks so excited and scared and is completely paying attention to the ride operator!

10 on Tuesday

1. We're getting ready for a yard sale this weekend.  
2. I had no idea we owned so much junk!  

3. I finally caught up on loading my pictures.  *sigh*

4. Meet Boodgie and Goodgie.  They're Michael's fair fish.  He named them himself. :º)

5. Michael finally figured out peddling.  It's been about a month.  I am really behind on my pictures.

6. This BIG boy rode all the big rides at the fair.  ALL of the big rides.  He and Regan were PUT OUT when the upside down ride's height requirement suggested they not ride.

7. My poor Carter Baby is cutting teeth numbers 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 AND 14!!!  He's been over-all pleasant but when he throws a fit it's a BIG one! 

8. A photo from inside a corn field.  I'm surrounded.   

9. Becky Highman made this bracelet for me.  It's an original.  She said it's one of her favorites.  We were across from each other at the fair and she kept calling me over to show off my arm.  She is so stinking cute!  And REALLY talented!  I just love it!

10. Did I mention we're getting ready for a yard sale?  

Murderous

I was washing out a couple of towels in the bathroom sink.  They had some soaking time so I was wringing them out.  When I went to hang them on the towel rack I saw something in the toilet.  My first thought was "EEEWWW!  Who didn't flush the toilet!?!?"  Then I looked in.  It was a mouse.  Swimming in my toilet!!!!  The love of living things in me peaked out and I actually thought of saving it.  Then the mouse dropping cleaner in me thought of what Brian would say to me if I took it out of the toilet.  So...I flushed it.  I felt AWFUL!!!!!  I still feel awful!  It was awful!

The irony of the whole thing is that Michael got "Flushed Away" on DVD earlier that day.  The next morning he wanted to watch it upon waking.  He has no idea what took place over night.  I have a new appreciation for looking in the toilet before sitting.  I laugh out loud every time Roddie takes that plunge.  As much as I appreciate living in the country I do hope our next home isn't surrounded by fields.  :º)

What a sight!

We had quite a view last night. I have so many pictures, from Lakeside, of the sun and it's reflection on Lake Erie. It was so amazing to see the moon in the same spot with the same reflection. So here's an opposite shot for you. It's from my phone so the quality is kinda shotty. I'll get another one up when I'm home.
