The past week

Monday was the 1st day of school - yea!!!!

My 1st grader (really - she was MUCH happier to be going back to school than this shows...) My senior

Our town festival was last weekend - it was hot but we had fun...
Rode some rides
Watched DS kick some butt
Watched AMERICAN ENGLISH for a while - very fun!
And PHIL VASSAR

I hope you've all had a good week too.

This weekend promises to be fun too!

Whew

Where has August gone????!!!!!!

It has been a busy month! The kids are back in school - yea! We are dealing with senioritis and an excited 1st grader.

DD survived the dentist yesterday and did very well! She got her crown on and since it's metal - she looks like a gangsta. Wonderful....

Hope you're enjoying your August and have had a great summer.

Kenny Chesney - The Boys of Fall

Football season is back and there's much excitement in our house again.

TGI almost F!

It has been a week and I can not wait for the weekend!!!!

It's gonna be a busy one but I think some fun will be had and hopefully a little relaxation too...

I'm hoping to get a little scrapbooking and knitting done.

Hope you all have a super weekend!

YEA!

Office outing today! Brewers game and brewery tour. I am very excited! Hope the roof is closed on the stadium...

Have a great Thursday!

Monday gratitudes

Happy August!


For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Can it be said better than that? Those are the things I am most grateful for each day.

This past week in particular I am grateful/thankful for:
*Surprises
*A peaceful day
*Beautiful weather
*Wonderful kids & husband
*My parents & siblings

I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Ahem...

As August 1 is here - the MLB trade deadline has passed and I have one question (that I'll address here)..... What the hell were the Cubs thinking??? Lilly & Theriot? REALLY???!!!!!

Are they power players? No. Are they consistent - most of the time. Could you build a team around them and a few others? Sure thing.

And what did we get? An average player and I hope he is a positive addition to the team.

Sigh...ok - sorry!!!! I just think this is going to be a bad move in the end...
