Lets Stay Together

When I think GREEN I think nature, outside... and this is what i found

It also reminds me of this man and the song he sings, its the song me and my husband danced to at our wedding almost 2 years ago now!

what rhymes with Orange?

This is the ORANGE that I found on our family outing to Toms Logging Camp today

Yellow

Happy Yellow Monday! may not be the best picture...but i tried

I have cute friends

In high school I had a group of friends and we called ourselves the 'fab five' and when Jeska (yes that's how she spells her name)asked me to be in her wedding I was ecstatic, I have been friends with her the longest out of all of them,16 years! and when she told me she was having seven bridesmaids including all the members of the 'fab five' I knew it was going to be a good time, and it was! The wedding took place and her and Zach's place of employment and the ceremony was beautiful. I think I cried more at her wedding then I did at my own. The food was also very good, since Zach cooked it ;) We all had a great time and danced the night away! Congratulations Tom and Jeska!

Sound it Out

Zach and I were laying in bed the other night, and I was telling him how when i was younger (9-12) that I would lie in my parents bed with my dad every night and he would read the readers digest to me. I kinda laugh about it now, but back then I thoroughly enjoyed it. So I came up with the idea for something fun for the two of us to do at home (besides movies)....We should read a book together, we would alternate chapters. Zach knew just the one, he said it was his favorite childhood novel and has read it a few times, so we went to Barnes and Noble and he picked this good read. We started reading it the other night. We get all snuggled in, he says "are you ready?" he waits for the OK and he said, "you have to pay attention because I'm NOT gonna recap anything!" So I listen intently, when the chapter is over I say OK my turn, and Zach says no, his explanation is that I can't read as well as he can. "How do you know you have never heard me!" So he says fine....We are on the forth chapter and I have read one. what does that tell you? Looks like I'm going to be revisiting my childhood of being read to every night... It may sound dumb and cheesy for us to be reading a book together, but so far we're really enjoying it...did i mention the book is good too? :)

Taystee

We decided that we should do something fun and free as a family...so after Luke took his nap we headed to D town. We went to this cemetery that my parents took me to as a kid to feed the ducks....there wasn't as many ducks as when I had been there in my younger years, maybe they also thought they should go and do something fun with there family on such a beautiful day....So we got out the bread and started feeding the few that were there. Luke was more interested in earthier eating the bread, or chasing the geese, so mainly me and Zach did the feeding. As I was standing there feeding our feathered friends, I got the most vivid memory of a book that was read to me as a child,the scenery is what i think reminded me of it. I think I may have to read it too Luke someday :) But it was a good time until Luke had an accident...or maybe I should say the goose had an accident...

Labor Day

We were asked by my "bestie"and her boyfriend if we would want to join them and others on there boat for Labor Day, they were going to Pike Lake. Since Zach had his first holiday off in 3 years, who would pass it up! So we made it up there on a gorgeous 70 degree day not a cloud in the sky. We had a great time with good company. A certain someone said he wasn't going to go tubing, as if he was too good for it. But the next day was complaining of Soar shoulders and hands. While the ladies relaxed and got some sun. the day couldn't have gone better! It was a perfect way to spend Labor Day with absolutely NO labor involved :)....

Until that night, I got home and my body felt like it was on FIRE! I was so burnt! Zach said he had no sympathy for me because I knew that was going to happen, but I don't tan unless I burn...

NOTE TO SELF:

Wear some sunscreen with a LITTLE s.p.f. :)

♪Isn't it GREAT that I articualte♪

Luke is officially 1 1/2! and he's getting so big! I can't even believe the things he learns all on his own. The things he understands, it's so fun! He LOVES his blankie, he gives kisses, hugs, says "ta tu" a.k.a thank you, and he's working on other words besides mama and his favorite, da da. He's a total goof ball always trying to get a laugh out of anyone who will watch him..i don't know who he gets that from ;)... He's definitely a total BOY he loves to ride the tractor, golf cart, and lawn mower out at "gamma's and gampa's." He puts a smile on our face everyday, with every little new thing he does :) pretty soon he will be singing this song...

What a mighty fine man

Janet took "da baby"(as we like to call him) and the man and I fled to the cities for an overnight getaway.We went to Ikea for a king size bed frame to match the king size mattress we inherited. Zach wasn't to keen on the idea, he says its cheap furniture and made poorly...but what baby wants baby gets :). Lets just say we took our time getting home....

This is the finished product! I'm in love..

Sweet dreams to all my readers :)
