Quarter, Coke and a Smile!

-
I can't believe my husband grabbed my blog idea! I am obsessed with the camera lately, and take it everywhere we go. So thus the pictures of the kids getting coke at the local Save-A-Lot. Actually my take on it was this, Ethan's desire for change! Every time he finds change he always asks me..."mom do I have enough for a diet coke?" He's addicted. Takes after his grandmother, he does!

I feel better today, not that the movie helped much! I won't spoil it for you if you are planning on seeing it. I got one night of sleep without interruptions (okay, I know Ethan is too old to be waking up in the middle of the night but he gets scared)! I have been trying not to sleep in there with him, and it's seems that tucking him back in and assuring him that mommy is next door does the trick. He is my last one, so back off all you out there who thinks I need to stop babying him. Did I just say "last one?" Aargh. Mark and I talked about how things are so nice right now, with Ethan and Valerie headed to school and me headed to work. I agree, but I wouldn't mind adopting one. I have been watching specials by Lisa Ling about the babies in China. I think it would be fun...and definitely less painful!

I sent Mark off for a movie so that I could get the kids in the bath and to bed at a decent time. They need a routine at night! I haven't had a chance to do that because of all the late nights studying, and being gone of course. I wish I had a good idea for a blog tonight...something different and unique. I am not a list maker...so there goes that idea. Kristy let me know if you have another great idea! Let's scrapbook soon too. I just cleaned out my rolling scraping storage in my closet. There is lots that needs to be done! Those thirty stamp sets are collecting dust!

Till tomorrow. Hang in there David Blaine! Just hours left till you can emerge from your water bubble! Who would be stupid enough to submerge themselves for a whole week in water? I guess if you needs an intense facial, maybe?

That last sentence was complete with grammatical errors! It sounded very southern though! After all we live in the South! I may become one of y'all, after all!

Calling All Women

The Challenge: Have as many women as I can interpret what I meant by "Spending ever day looking for new ways to reinvent our relationship." Please leave your comments so that I know I wasn't speaking a foreign language with my spouse. Men, feel free to comment as well! I'm sure you will anyways. Conversation with hubby: Me: I have a New Years Resolution that I think would be fun for us, do you want to hear it? Man: Sure Me: I think every day we should look for new ways to reinvent our relationship? Man: What do you mean? Me: I just said what I meant. Man: No you didn't really explain what you mean, though. Me: You know, finding little things that would change our relationship...doing something each day. Man: That seems taxing! Me: Working on our relationship is work? Man: Yeah, I wouldn't know what to do. That's 365 days, you know. Me: There are calendars out there that will tell you things to do that are romantic! Buy one. Man: Yeah, but most of them are ...

Monday, when we got back from our anniversary trip, found a note on the counter that read: Suzanne called. Play group. Tuesday at 830am. Who would schedule a playgroup so early? Doesn't anyone sleep in? Let the kids find their own breakfast, and stay under the covers till they beg for lunch? Well, you know heat here in the summers, ranging around the 100's, makes us southerners wake up early in the a.m. to do the things we enjoy. When noon rolls around, we hull up in our homes, doors tightly shut, curtains drawn, trying to escape the BIG BAD (the sun appropriately named, right Spike?)! I guess that was not in the cards for us today! We spent the early morning hours playing at the park with pretty much everyone from Journey! Unfortunately around 10 a.m. the heat found us and forced us to retreat to Suzanne's house for some relief! We had a great time chatting, the conversation ranged from ovulation...and ended with ovulation. I think Micheal enjoyed the conversation as much ...

My latest obsessions….puzzling The week after Coyote made a surprise visit! It’s been awhile since I posted! I was just looking back on some posts and giggled so I think it is important to continue since posts tell the story of my life. These pictures were from our latest venture to Paso Robles to see Coyote! Mark, I, and Charlie drove to Paso Robles California in approximately 18 hours. We stayed three glorious days and drove home within the sametime frame. While we were there, we got to see Hearst Castle, visited San Luis Obispo, saw the ocean and tons of beached Sea creatures, ate amazing food, drank amazing coffee, visited a couple of thrift stores, art galleries, and was surprised to find a outdoor vending machine full of specialty meats and cheeses. We purchased a cheese that was literally black all the way through. It was so good and tasty. It had a wonderful lemon taste to it and was very mild. Our Airbnb was located on a Vineyard. Coyote, Kees, and Pharaday even came over and ...
