Days 179 – 183
Here it is Thursday and I just realized, it’s been awhile since I last posted. So here are some recent photos.
On Sunday, after the tree came down, I noticed these flowers by the fence.

My mother-in-law planted a garden and it is really doing well. I noticed a tomato growing and thought I’d take a picture.

Tuesday, Carl had a really long work day. I had ran some errands and went to pick him up, but he wasn’t quite ready to go. So the kids and I hung out in the break room. While there, I snapped a photo.

Wednesday was a big day, Quisha came to visit!! She will be here till the middle of August. So here is my beautiful girl.

Today, we went to the fair. So I snapped a shot of the ferris wheel. We had a really good time, sadly Cauner lost his wallet.
So now we need to get him some new library cards and he lost some money too.

Well that’s it for now.
More pics to share and updated my theme
Well now I am going to go Twilight for a bit. I’ve got some pictures to share too.
I gave Cauner a haircut recently, so this is the end result. He wanted me to cut off all the curls.

On Thursday, Jorja decided I needed my nails painted, so that is what she did. ![]()

Friday, I had a good opportunity to get a rainbow for my picture, but before I could the sun came out and my rainbow disappeared.
I ended up getting this picture of Butch instead looking very sweet.

Today, we had a little bit of excitement — we had a tree removed — so now when I walk outside, this is what we will see.

My blog is so pretty!!
Flergs has decided to start selling blogware, so I am testing out one of her newest ones. I think it looks so pretty. This one is using her kit Buttercup.
She has another one using Into The Twilight, I will be trying that one on later. ![]()

Aren’t they nice? I love them both!!
New Creations
I haven’t posted any new pages lately and I need to remember to come do that here too.
I made this card for a friend of ours who was graduating high school.

I also made this cute little bag for her too.

I made this one for Jayson. It’s my new favorite picture of him.

I had to make this one for my love of the Twilight Saga. This is the new movie poster for the upcoming movie, New Moon.

This one is just a pretty little layout featuring some of the flowers from the tree in our backyard.

This latest one is of the kids blowing bubbles, this kit was just perfect for it.

Thanks for taking a look, all the images are linked.
Days 170 – 174
Well here it is Tuesday already. Time for some new pictures.
Friday, this picture was actually taken by Jayson. Smudge is a hoot and finds some of the most interesting ways to chill out.

Saturday, yup another kitty pic.
Can’t help it, they’re so darn cute.
Akasha was playing in this chair and kept trying to attack me.

Sunday, I actually tweeted the other day about whether I should repaint my toes. So I did just that.

Monday, while out running some errands, I decided I needed to take a picture of this sign. I pass it everytime I go to the store. I’ve never been inside, but the sign just makes me laugh.

Tuesday, for the past two days this has been the site in the kids’ room. They love making forts.

Well that’s it for now, gotta go start making dinner.
Days 168 and 169
Hey look it’s only been two days this time.
Well this week has truly just zoomed by, I had to keep telling myself that tomorrow is really Friday.
On Wednesday, I saw these beautiful flowers. I have no idea what they are, but they are pretty. I hope you’re not sick of seeing flowers, I can’t get enough of them. I have to stop myself from pulling over into someone’s driveway while I am out running errands and not take a picture. ![]()

Today Jorja had a follow up appointment. They tested her again and found everything to be in the normal range. Her u/s of her kidneys came back normal as well. Her doctor still wants me to have that other test performed too.
This time of year we are always under a thunderstorm warning of some kind. Today was no exception, as we left the doctor’s office we looked up to see these big dark clouds rolling in.

We got home just in time for the storm to start. That’s it for today.
More pics to share
Summer is just trucking on by here. We aren’t doing a whole lot, but I am finding things to take pictures of each day.
Day 163 (June 12th): Inky decided that sleeping in this basket was the best place to be.

Day 164 (June 13th): Smudge loves ice cream and waits very patiently to clean the bowl out for us. Here he is waiting for Carl to get done. He looked down just as I snapped the camera, but he was staring intently at that bowl Carl has in his hands.

Day 165 (June 14th): The kids were asked to perform some of the songs they learned in VBS.

Day 166 (June 15th): This is one of the signs you see when you drive into our little town. We’d love to have you. ![]()

Day 167 (Jun 16th — today): Right around 2:30 Carl called to ask me what the weather looked like at our house. I said, it was starting to get cloudy and we could hear thunder. He said that where he was in Glasgow (about 20 minutes away) there was no visibility and the lights were out in certain parts of town. Well about ten minutes later, it hit us and it hit hard. The storm didn’t last long, but the following pictures will show what damage it left in it’s path. The picture of the day is of the kids playing in the rain.

They had fun when it was finally calm. We lost power for about two hours. So we walked around the neighborhood because there were fallen branches all over the place. The neighbor behind us had a tree fall on her house. This is the same tree that part of it fell into our yard when the ice storm hit us in January.


Carl, his mom and his dad all walked over to the other neighbor’s house around the corner and Carl called me to come look at this tree that fell down beside the street.

Check out what the branch did to the concrete. The wind was that stong.

Lots of pictures to share
Okay!!! Are you ready???? I’ve got quite a few pictures to share with you. Vacation Bible School is officially over and let me tell you it was an absolute blast!!! We had over 100 kids there. So here are some of my latest pictures.
Day 154 (June 3rd): This brick building is across the street from the library. I am just fascinated with brick buildings and made this my picture of the day.

Day 155 (June 4th): This is the view I get when I stand in my driveway, it’s just a green field with lots of trees — I just love how green Kentucky gets.

Day 156 (June 5th): These are some of the flowers my mother-in-law planted and has sitting on our porch. I think they are so pretty.

Day 157 (June 6th): This is how we found Butch sleeping on the couch — it makes you wonder if he was trying to get off and just fell asleep. ![]()

Day 158 (June 7th): How our stage looked during VBS. Our theme was the Boomerang Express — all about Australia.

Day 159 (June 8th): We invited someone to come play the didgeridoo — a wooden instrument from Australia. It was really cool to hear him play.

Day 160 (June 9th): We taught this kids all kinds of songs, this one happened to be my favorite.

Day 161 (June 10th): We also had rec time during VBS. Here they are playing a game of toilet tag.

Day 162 (June 11th): This was our last night at VBS. The kids were able to perform some of the songs on stage. This is Cauner.

Whew — that was a lot of catching up to do — but see, I took a picture each day.
VBS
For the next few days I will be a little preoccupied, I am teaching VBS at my church. So while I am still taking pictures, not sure when I will get to post them. Sorry such a short post, but just wanted my “faithful” readers to know where I ran off to.
Days 151 – 153
Holy Smokes, it’s June!! When did that happen? I had to go to the dentist yesterday to get some cavities filled, that basically shot down my whole day. I was numb for several hours, then my jaw and my teeth were so tender the rest of the day. Not to mention the fact that the new fillings feel totally weird. Blech. I need to schedule another appointment to get the remaining two filled on my left side. Gonna do that once I get my first bill. Took Jorja in to the the pediatrician today, she has another urinary tract infection, poor baby. I told them they have been happening for quite some time now, so in two weeks she has an appointment to get an ultrasound done along with some procedure that involves a catheter — I am not looking forward to putting her through that, but we need to make sure there isn’t some major reason why she keeps getting these bladder infections. How’s that for an update, I need to do that more often.
Let’s see today is Wednesday, okay so on Sunday I took this picture of the ivy that is growing on the side of the house.

Monday, the kids and I trekked into Munfordville to go to the library. Right outside the doors were these gorgeous lilies.

Tuesday, this is where I found Inky sleeping. Right under the kitchen window, propped up beside my jar for making sun tea. He looks so peaceful.

Well that’s it for now. I will be posting more pictures soon.
