TYVM - 7/15/10

Courtesy of Kmama!

To my sweet little, hi-speed Miss Daisy, Thank You Very Much for unrolling the ENTIRE roll of toilet paper. There I go again, trying to wash my hands after changing your diaper! Babe, I don't enjoy getting my TP from a massive pile on the floor! Stop it!!

To the the crop duster that began dive bombing the field behind our house before 6am. Thank You Very Much for scaring me awake an entire hour before I needed to wake up! And I especially loved peeking out the window only to see you dive out of sight and then pull-up just in time to miss the school and fly your screaming engine right over my house. That is one crazy job you've got!

To the heat AND humidity, Thank You Very Much. You're gross! For the love, BRING US SOME STORMS!!

Alrighty then! Go get your free therapy from Kmama.

WW - Do you guys get these?

I may or may not "borrow" ideas from IheartFaces and post my interpretation of their weekly theme. Without submitting my photo for judgement and not being forced to follow the rules.

Mondays are hard! Blogging on Mondays shouldn't be!

Miss Lily

I have many pictures of Lily's feet, but they need to be

scanned and I just don't feel like it!

Teeny Tiny Baby Boy Feet

Bailey

You can see the ouchie on his heel where they poked him a million times in the hospital.

(winter in the summer)

Anybody need a cool down?

Let's share some of our fave shots from cooler days!

Fire!

We like to sing in the car.
The kids beg me to play their current favorite song and everyone sings it at the top of their lungs!
Past faves have been Johnny Cash's "Jackson" and "Babe", sung by Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon.
It's fun!
Lately, every one has been begging to hear "Fire", sung by the cast of Glee.
Even Daisy has been joining in on the fun.
We think it's really funny!
It's even more hilarious when there is dancing involved!

WW - Hot Hot Hot!

Today's theme for Monday Mugs is: Blue

My BLUE is mixed with a bit of Red and White!

One of my favorite 4th of July traditions, is to make my kids wear festive clothes and force them to let me take their pictures.
They LOVE it, as seen in the following picture:

I did manage to get a few smiles out of them.

Lily even wore the outfit and combed her hair the way I demanded asked her to!

Miss Smiley Pants was in rare form! I never thought she'd keep the little headband on! And I usually can't get her to sit still for 5 seconds so I can get one shot. Today, she sat down on the little stool and was content to sit and smile while I shot about 20 pictures of her. She got very mad when I asked her to get up so someone else could get their pictures taken!

I even got a shot of all 4 of them together and they're all looking in the generel direction of the camera!

Letters of Intent - Eclipse Edition

Brought to You by Julie, and guest hosted by the lovely Rachel today!

Dear Makers of Twilight Movies,
I LOVED the latest installment to the saga and am REALLY looking forward to many more viewings when Eclipse is released on DVD. But do you really have to make us wait until December 2011 to see Breaking Dawn? I don't think I can wait that long.
Sincerely,
A Loyal Twihard

Dear Customer Service Employee at The Theaters,
It was really very nice of you to exchange our 8:50pm tickets, that I purchased online, for the 30 minutes earlier showing of Eclipse. I really thought we would need to get in line an hour before the movie started but when we showed up and were the first ones in line, I realized we could have gone to the earlier show and rescued Grandpa M from the Three Musketeers that much sooner!
Sincerely,
Seriously, Thanks For Your Help

Dear Grandpa M,
Thank you soooooooooooo much for watching our 3 young kiddos, AT BED TIME, so we wouldn't have to wait another day to see Eclipse! We Love You!!
Love,
Your Daughter

Dear Fellow Twihards Waiting to Enter the Theater,
Since there were about 30 of you ahead of us in line, I was really worried that we would not be able to get my favorite seats in the theater. You know, the ones right in front, with the very handy bars to rest your feet on? I was shocked AND overjoyed that you passed right by these wonderful seats and left 3 of them empty just for us! I can't even begin to tell you how much I appreciated this!
Sincerely,
Very Grateful

Dear Followers/Friends/Lurkers,
Did you catch that? There were 3 of us at the movies last night. Obviously, Lily and I were there! But what you may not have noticed yet is that DaddyO braved the mostly teen aged Twilight fans and accompanied us to the show. Oh yes he did!
Sincerely,
LOVED Eclipse and Also, LOVED Not Having to Drive Home in the Dark (horrible night vision)

Go visit Foursons to read more letters and to maybe offer Julie, who had a broken and then surgeried hand this week, some words of encouragement!

Hey You Guys!
I know that surgeried is not a word!
Love,
H
