A Quiet Moment to Myself

I am all by myself at the moment.

Sort of.

Ruby is snoring at my feet.

Snookie just came by for a visit on my desk.

Crazy cat.

rough morning.

Squabbling in front of the bathroom mirror.

No fatalities but there was a lecture to follow.

I sure can give them.

I probably sound like Charlie Brown's teacher.  

Bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla...

Mandy is volunteering.

So proud of her.

She helps the little ones (2-3 year olds) at story time.

I imagine she is a sort of "Wiggles" star to them.

Singing and dancing is involved.

No eye contact with parents, though, as that would be mortifying.

She has no idea how much they appreciate the break.

She is a rock star to them, too.:)

Katie is at day camp.

I love her excitement over the activities, games and such.

No desire for sleep away camp yet. 

I don't think I'm ready either.

Battling those darn japanese beetles.

I staged a rescue mission this morning so that a few roses could grace my table!

Mandy says it doesn't feel like summer yet.

Poor girls have school all year long. 

That may be part (if not all) of the problem.

This frees us up for vacations and getaways any time of the year.

We are soon heading South so everyone will be smiling.:)

Daddy/Daughter Date Night tonight.

Chick Fil A just gets better and better.

Walking, cleaning the house and reading are on my menu.

Fresh corn on the cob and a Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwich, too.:)

So much effort to get a good family picture.;)

My husband was provoking Mandy.

Sometimes I have to separate my children.;)

Just found out about a Summer Reading Program.

For Grown Ups.:)

Sign up here!

Free. Books.

Yes, Ma'am.

Did you know Sonic has 1/2 price shakes after 8:00 PM this summer?

Wow.

This last picture is all sorts of wrong.

And I love it.
