365...Day 17

This is my favorite picture of Cari and I from high school.  It was taken at a cold football game in the fall of 1993; we were SENIORS.  Cari asked me to dig it out so she could include it in her book about her life.  Thought I would post it.  Oh, those were the days of super, red lipstick!!  Go Rebels!!

365...Day 16

As a consequence of me working, there are many things that just don't get done.  Last week, I was going to Walmart and Shane asked me if I could just get him a  loaf of bread.  Sorry buddy, mama just cannot keep up.  I am glad I work here and there and am so grateful I don't have to work full time.  Yesterday, Shane wouldn't brush his teeth beacuse we had run out of Aquafresh and the toothpastes we have at the house are just too hot.  I have two tubes in my bag from Target. :)

Go Cowboys!!  We love Justice.  Cute little monkey shirt that endorses Steve's favorite team!

365...Day 14

Lots of stuff, huh?  It is amazing how much stuff you need to scrapbook for a 3 day weekend.  Who cares that I forgot my toothpaste and conditioner.  I had adhesive, paper, and stickles.  Twenty-two women, each with a 5 foot table piled with stuff in a room, is a LOT of stuff.  I got so much done!  Almost finished scrapping 2009 for our family album.  Backed up my laptop on a new external hard-drive, transferred my pictures from my phone into my computer (so I could do more blog posts.)  It was a great weekend!

365...Day 14

Give this kid a camera and she can entertain herself (and others) for hours.  This was at her birthday sleepover; she is being quite a ham.  When she was little, she would play amuse herself with mirrors and the glass patio door -- making funny faces and giggling at herself.  Same kid...just a little bigger.  How I love to hear her deep-belly laugh!

365...Day 13

My kids love to build tents out of blankets and then play and sleep in them.  This one is upstairs in the playroom.  Recently, they use the bay window in the living room as their location.

365...Day 12

Hands on science!  Shane received this volcano kit as a birthday present.  You mixed an orange tablet with baking soda and vinegar and it erupts.  What fun!
