Stayen Alive!!

Elena tends to do this.

she likes to draw photos of me, or joe..or me AND joe, ugly, or retarded or in this case...old. heh, now if this photo is our future, pray for me! it's kinda scary!!!

gotta admit tho, i've got a pretty good style for a 100 year old. tee hee.

Alrighty, is it just me or are kids really smart. Kids games are no piece of cake, I have a terrible time trying to beat this 9 year old girl at speed (well that’s because she cheats and puts all her cards down on the ground so she can see them and grab the ones she “needs” ha! Good idea for a new version of speed no? heh) or concentration, and even old maid. I always get the old maid! She always comes to me…I’m always stuck with her from the beginning and I never am able to trick the nine year old girl into grabbing the “right” card! Argh! Smart kid. Or…maybe there’s something to the game that I’m missing?! Ehe! Anyhow, she somehow manages to beat me at miniature pool too…or that could be because she hits three balls before she hits the one she’s aiming for…complicated. Her way of games are very, very interesting. I am amused. I always am. I laugh and she laughs too, not knowing why I laughed in the first place. I always loose, but it helps to keep me humble…and try to play the “correct” way. Though it’s SO tempting to try and play her ways, they’re so fun! :) We eat snack, she takes the good ice-cream and leaves me the special little frozen bar of sweet bean, and I try to eat it with those little “mm’s” and “good ice-cream!” sounds, while sticking the rest in a little plastic bag hidden in my handbag to bring home to Elena, who always is ready to welcome anything I bring home for her.
That’s the whole story. It may sound a tad strange, but we really do have fun each and every time. I learn more about the “way children play games” every time I go! So by the time I have my own little pooches, I’ll be a pro at playing games with children! Well…actually, you can never get pro at something can you, there’s always something new and exciting to learn every time. Well, at least with kids! Heh!
God bless all you mothers, if kids are smart, you must be smarter!;)

And oh, a big congratulations to my wonderful, wonderful love who now has earned his place in the “professional” gang (hint hint, to you two! You know who you are…) getting a raise sure does call for a big happy hug and a cold Cc lemon! Hee hee!! Oh, oh! And of course, not forgetting that sandwich filled with pickles and cucumbers…I am still really surprised you enjoyed it, but hey, it makes me feel happy that I can make a pickle and cucumber sandwich a yummy one! Haha, I love you! And you were always a professional to me. Always beat the boys, always! Hehe!

Anyways,
Those were my thoughts for this evening. I’ll maybe dare to write some more another time. Since I hardly use this blog to share my thoughts anyhow…it might be a good idea to join the trend…ahem. Could be fun!
Peace guys, and sweet dreams tonight!!!
Kiss kiss.

summer photos!

summer vacation was wonderful. I always love August. so happy and sunny and fun! everyone is wearing cute clothes, getting those adorable tans and looking happy and energetic! sigh..

another year till it comes around. this summer went by real fast. but I enjoyed every day of it! and will look back with a huge smile!

Jesus was good to us.

I now enter Autumn with a happy, content heart with a little hesitance about Christmas, BUT, as always, looking forward to the warm happy people that make such a wonderful team. and this year will have a new addition, Lord willing, so please pray that it'll work out. :) it's always such a tangle getting into Christmas and figuring things out, but in the end it's nothing compared to the great times spent dancing on the streets with the people you love!

ahh...can't wait for the Christmas tree and the lights and the heaters and warm blankets to jump into and snuggle and cuddle all day! whoo! I can't believe i'm talking about Christmas when it's still quite a ways away, but it'll come anyhow, and I think i've had enough of summer to now appreciate the wonderful winter!!!

I really hope you guys have all had a wonderful summer! enjoyed the sun while you could...tho there will still be sun..hee hee..

here's some photos..many photos..of the various activities we did during the month of August! cheers!!

ooh, and for those of you who might be wondering how Greg's party went, it went well! everyone was happy...and I HOPE the birthday boy enjoyed it as much as I did..cause if he didn't..well..that would defeat the purpose of the many phone calling and e-mailing that took place behind the scenes! :) hint hint..gregggg...

hahah.

glad HCS and Love hut and PC could make it!! sorry if there wasn't MUCH planned, but I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless!! now Greggy's a happy cheery Sr. Teen! the big number everyone usually dreams to reach! heh!! I never really wrote anything about you Greg...so CHEERS!! with some yummy alcohol, but we've already done that..soo..Cheers with some ice cold water!! i love you tons and PLEASE enjoy your Sr. years, they'll be the two years in your life that you'll definitely remember...I think...

maybe...

LOVE YOU!!!
