Community Fun Run

Lindsey & I wanted to do something fun, like run a race (or walk)!. We looked into the Race for the Cure (on a Sunday), the MS walk (on a Sunday) and then we found the Community Fun Run which helps support the developmentally challenged. So we looked high and low and got a team together!

.

And we're off:

Shirley, (Carlee in the stroller), Megan, Bonnita, & Caelyn hiding behind Gina

.

Carmen, (Luke in the stroller), me, Tammy, Chelsey, Leah, & Lindsey

(with Juliette behind the camera!)

.

And we all managed to finish and get our T-shirts. Yay!

.

Refreshments after the strenuous trek......... :)

(I won a door prize - a Starbucks gift card! mmmmmm!!)

.

Running roomies!

(Tammy is our temporary roomie while her house is uninhabitable)

Need I say more ??......................

Funny Stuff

Tammy sent me an email which made me LOL!!! I was at work so I was trying to get it down but some of these were just too funny......

Let me share with you :)

*

*

Do you want the bigger half?

*

*

Is it the teenagers compiling these statistics?

*

*

Just in case anyone wasn't quite sure...........

*

*

By slapping the authors head or what??

*

*

Well they are rather suspicious snooping in everyone's mailbox!

*

*

Mission successful!

*

*

Since nothing costs a quarter anymore I would be suspicious too!

*

*

Really?? Glad that was cleared up!

*

*

What do you say to this?!?!?!

*

*

That defiant duck! **I'm fine! Quack Quack!**

*

*

Just a warning.................... :)

*

*

I hope you all had as good a laugh as I did!

A new week.....

"A laugh is a smile that bursts"

Hope everyone has a great week! :)

A little bit of this & that.......

So I haven't been doing much of anything lately. Haven't let town, haven't remodeled anymore rooms, have taken any exciting pictures...........

Lindsey & Juliette have both gotten moved in and we are all settling in. The toughest challange we have encountered so far is having only one bathroom for 3 girls! (particularily on Sunday mornings!!) :) We all like to cook so have been having a little bit of fun in the new kitchen!!

The girls have already had a get-together here for the young kids. I don't know yet if being around all these 18-19-20-21 year olds is making me feel old or if they are keeping me young............... :)

After living by myself for awhile I do have to say that it is nice having people around again.

We celebrated Patti's birthday here, 'twas quite fun. (that was also when the family saw what I had done!)

I also made a couple aprons this weekend:

Mary Engelbreit print:

And a red & white check with embroidery on the bottom. Now I can get cookin'!!!

Purple Potatos!!

This is so random but it was too weird not to share! A guy I work with grows purple potatos. Now when he told me this I assumed he meant that the outside was a purple-ish color. No.......the INSIDE is purple, bright purple! Wouldn't these make for some fun french fries!

The pics are kind of fuzzy but you can tell what a bright color purple they are!

I peeled off just the skin it was even a brighter purple than the inside.

Purple Potatos - who'd a thunk it? :0)

Shhhhh...............

I have a secret - and wouldn't you like to know what it is!!!

Good! So can I! Hee hee :)
