"A" for effort Collin! Ofcourse being a mom I had to add some more to it. I don't think fruit snacks and yogurt would have sustained us for long. It was so sweet of him to try though!
1. There is no need to say I look tired when I already know I am.
2. Where in the heck did the recipe I had yesterday go? Seriously, I can't find it.
3. Wake up is all I managed to do.
4. Prospects for lunch with the ladies at 12:30.
5. Live life like there is no tomorrow is the message.
6. Simplicity and tranquility are greatly needed in my home. Simplicity in my organizing and tranquility amongst the kids.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to talk like a pirate day, tomorrow my plans include making donuts and playing rock band 2! and Sunday, I want to put my feet up and relax!
What do you call a male ladybug?
When dog food is new and improved tasting, who tests it?
Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?
Why do they sterilize the needle before lethal injections?
Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?
Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?
If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP?
Why do people without a watch look at their wrist when you ask them what time it is?
Why do banks charge you a "non-sufficient funds fee" on money they already know you don't have?
Tell a man that there are 400 billion stars and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint and he has to touch it.
If man evolved from apes, why do we still have apes?
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman where the self-help section was. She said if she told me it would defeat the purpose.
Isn't it scary that doctors call what they do "practice?"
The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
Few women admit their age, Fewer men act it!
No matter how far money goes, it still can’t go as far as the next paycheck.
There is nothing so comforting as the patter of little children’s feet about a home, because the moment the sound stops one knows that they are up to something they shouldn’t be.
There is nothing that upsets a person quite as much as having company drop in and see the house looking as it usually does.
1. I enjoy family, photography, and chocolate!
2. My son Collin and how he really acts at school is something I wonder about often lately.
3. In your heart, you knew that life is precious and you should enjoy every minute.
4. Take ice cream, add a little chocolate, bananas, and cherries and you end up with HEAVEN!
5. Life has gifted me with the ability to really listen and pick up on emotions.
6. Finding an adventure in the simplest things is an instant vacation.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to finishing a book, tomorrow my plans include taking Collin to a birthday party and Sunday, I want to actually go to church! We've been sick for the last two weekends.
It was my sweet baby girl's turn at the fair on Saturday. It was supposed to be mine too but as luck would have it I threw up in the parking lot before we even went in. Oh well, at least grandma was there to take the kids on the rides. I'll just have to wait until next year.
Brother took her on the car ride first. I heard her saying, "Beep! Beep!"
I think this elephant ride scared her. She wasn't smiling at all after it started.
She wasn't too sure of the merry-go-round either. Her eyes looked dizzy!
While we were walking Carlee heard music coming out of one to the fun houses. She loves music so she started shaking her booty right there in the aisles.
Carlee was in heaven in the petting zoo. She was jabbering and pointing as fast as she could at all the animals.
She loooooved the baby goats.
Collin did too!
I think he was trying to nibble her shirt. Not suprising since the other goats were eating the signs.
These goats were ready to rumble. Poor Carlee got caught in the middle. They ended up knocking her off her feet!
"Now play nice boys."
How cute are these babies?
Collin loves to play the carnival games so they both ended up at the duck pond...
...and with a bucket of balls to throw. Poor Carlee couldn't throw very far. Her balls didn't even make it to the cups.
Waiting in line.
Carlee loved the helicopters. This was the last ride and her favorite of the night.
We went to the glow shack and I bought both kids some glasses that light up. Carlee loved them!
Collin was upset that he didn't get a toy instead. Sheesh...can't please him.
He ended up with a lot of loot anyways so he shouldn't complain!
Carlee with her loot. Collin won the pink bear for her.
You can't go to the fair without stopping for cotton candy!
Collin was shoveling it in fast!
Carlee was all tuckered out at the end of the night. Sweet dreams baby! Hurray! Amusement park time finally! Collin and I live for the fair. As you can see from the photos below Eric really got into it too. The boys went and got wristbands while I took photos. They didn't turn out too well because I had it on the wrong setting. Oops! I didn't even go on any rides because my sweet Carlee shared her flu bug with me. I didn't think twirling and twisting would be too pleasant for the nausea. Hopefully Carlee and I are both better by Saturday so we can have our turn!
Collin saw this car below for the demolition derby ride and said, "I'm not going on that if they're going to crash!"
But, as you can see he did go on it anyways.
Last year I rode this coaster over and over with Collin but this year he only went on it twice. He really just wanted to keep playing the carnival games. He threw darts at balloons and won two little snakes. He also threw ping pong balls into little floating cups to win a tiger for Carlee. She didn't even appreciate it though. She only wanted the snakes. "A" for effort Collin. It was sweet to think of your sister.
The slide was Collin's favorite of the day.
We ended the night by taking Collin to the Motocross show. He got bored after only 30 minutes of it the little knucklehead. The show ended up lasting two and a half hours. I love watching the crazy flips and whips. I'll have to post video highlights later this weekend if I have time. That's all for now!
