Who doesn't love a loofah?

Let's Go Swimming!

Most of the summer it rained - but then a dead spell for about 3 weeks ... until yesterday... after the showers subsided - we had a lake near our backyard.

This next one is so sad - but very shareable... Sorry Gadashio :(

This is Mr. Cautious after his little tumble occurred -

I WENT OUT LAST NIGHT -

TO MY PORCH... THE BELOVED SET UP OUR BACKYARD INTO A THEATER -
NOTICE OUR LIVING ROOM COUCH AND COFFEE TABLE -
VERY COMFY:)

IT WAS A WONDERFUL LITTLE DATE NIGHT. PUT THE KIDS TO BED - DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY A BABYSITTER - GOT TO SPEND TIME W/TWO OF MY FAVORITE MEN...

THE BELOVED OF COURSE AND HUGH JACKMAN :)

I COULDN'T COMPLAIN!

THANKS HONEY!

You Decide -

LACK OF CLEAN LAUNDRY OR JUST A

HUGE BSU FAN?

LITTLE C WAS INSTRUCTED TO PUT HIS PAJAMAS ON AND THIS IS WHAT HE RETURNED IN -
BOISE STATE SHIRT ON THE TOP - AND WHAT DO YA KNOW? - BOISE STATE SHIRT ON THE BOTTOM -

Lucky You...

Sorry no pictures or anything truly new going on - so lucky you - you get to hear a few of my random thoughts:

1. The Beloved Spouse and I were talking the other day about lisps - (is that not normal or something:)) - why do they call a lisp a lisp in the first place? Can a person with a lisp even say lisp? I think we see a very possible law suit coming to light.:)

2. WHY A HOUSE NEEDS THREE BATHROOMS... the answer came quite suddenly to me one Sunday morning... I was in the middle of getting ready for church - I had just showered and entered the closet to put on my Sunday best... when I returned to the bathroom I ran smack in to the Beloved, bless his soul, who thinks now would be an opportune moment to spend quite a lengthy time in the lavatory. TO SOME COUPLES THIS MAY BE ACCEPTABLE - BUT FOLKS WE ARE NOT A BATHROOM COUPLE. I WILL FOREVER PRETEND THAT GIRLS DON'T POOP AND IF YOU THINK YOU HEAR ME TOOT - IGNORE IT - BECAUSE IT WASN'T ME. - unless I don't know you very well and there are only two of us hanging out - then I have to claim it because I hate knowing that the other person is thinking - The Domestic Goddess in Training just totally farted, I can't believe she farted - way too awkward for me... - anyway back to the story -So - I ran in to the Beloved and he gave me the "what am I supposed to do about it" look and I started complaining about how he does this every Sunday and if he'd only wake up half an hour earlier to relieve himself we wouldn't have this issue.... and then it dawned on me. WE HAVE THREE BATHROOMS. He doesn't have to disturb the boys who are taking a bath or postpone me from getting ready in our bathroom.
I feel truly blessed - Illinois is having more and more perks.

3. I read a great book entitled -
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society - truly a refreshing read. A big thanks to my sisters for giving it to me for my birthday.

4. I read a retarded book entitled -
The Pig Did It - A big thanks to my sisters for giving it to me for my birthday - kidding - you didn't know therefore you are forgiven.

5. So this whole President Obama speaking to the children thing... whatever your opinion is... great -I am glad you have an opinion - but listen to this -
My sister received an op-out form from her child's school that read : Sign here if you would not like your child to hear President Obama's address on The Importance of Education.
How would you even dare sign it? YOU HORRIBLE PARENT YOU - Let me guilt you into not signing -gosh, it just made me laugh... great verbiage my friends - great verbiage.

That's all for now!

WE BLEED BLUE AND ORANGE!!!!

Hmmm... What nation am I a part of?

BRONCO NATION!!!!

BRONCOS VS. DUCKS


EVEN FROM OUR OWN LIVING ROOM....
HUNDREDS OF MILES AWAY -
WE ARE SERIOUS FANS -

VICTORY! BRONCOS WIN 19-8!

Sweet Dreams -

I'll Get IT -

During the evenings the Beloved Spouse will take the boys for a little nightly stroll. Everytime without fail, once the Moon is spotted, Gadashio practically crawls up his Father's body, points at this glowing ball in the sky, and says,

"I'll get it."

The Beloved simply smiles and replies, "Maybe one day".

WE WILL SURVIVE...maybe...

P90X DAY 1 -

after our work out routine
Oh - for the love my friends... oh for the love!

Hey - and for all those loved ones - recognize that folding chair in the background? It is my only heirloom from my sweet Grandpa Smitty that I will treasure forever! :)
