Whose Toothbrush Is It?

This morning B left for New York City with the High School Band.

He had to be at the High School at 5:30am!

I got him up at 4:30 to get a shower and finish packing.

After he showered, shaved, and brushed his teeth I asked him if he put his tooth brush in the bag.

He hadn't.

After asking him which one was his, I went in to get it. There were two green ones. One was wet, so I packed it.

Fast forward to when C2 was getting ready for school.

He went into the bathroom to brush his teeth.

"Where's my toothbrush?" he yells.

I don't know if I just packed the wrong one, or if they have actually been using the same brush!!!

One Crazy Night!

Last Friday was C1's birthday.

It was also the night of our School Carnival.

So this Friday, we had a sleepover.

We had a total of eight girls here! Eight hyper, loud, funny girls!

After they danced and sang in the field across the street, went for a walk, and ate a whole sheet pizza, they did this.

Each girl decorated a pillow case and then they all signed them. Thank you Internet for this idea!!! They enjoyed it and thought I had the best idea! (Shhh! They'll never know)

They had cake and ice cream.

Poor C1 got bombarded with a few handfuls of cake...

They gave themselves "make-overs" and we went for a walk. They even convinced M to take them down to the school so they could "Swing...in the dark", which they called out several times.

They danced...on.my.couch.

They never did sleep, but that's what it's all about, right?

These are the memories that they will look back on and smile.

They're good girls!!!

Meet Blue Belle...

About a year ago our rabbit, Midnight, died. He was almost five years old. When he died, he left a BIG hole in our hearts, mine especially.

Over the last year, we have been asked to take in a couple of rabbits. It never felt right. A friend of mine, breeds rabbits. I had talked to her about getting one this spring. She really didn't have the kind I wanted, but I would have tried it. Unfortunately, the first litter she had all died. It wasn't meant to be...

Then, the janitor at the school, brought in some rabbits he had. I didn't get to see them, but I heard how beautiful they were. They were almost three weeks old and a very rare slate blue color. Without even seeing them, I knew, this was our rabbit.

Meet Blue Belle...


She came home yesterday and just made herself at home. She is tame, and calm, and loves to snuggle. She reminds me of the way Midnight was when he was little.

Blue Belle is six weeks old.

Already, she is loved beyond comprehension.

She has won my heart over, as well as everyone else's.





Well, almost everyone.


Some of us, still have some adjusting to do...

Really!?!

Men!

Yesterday, on our way home from Columbus, there was a commercial on the radio.

It said, "If a man talks in the forest, and his wife doesn't hear him, is he still wrong?"

My reply was, "Probably".

My brother-in-law asked M if he heard that? He hadn't.

So R says, "If a man yells in the forest, and his wife doesn't hear him, is he still lost?"

WHAT!?!

I just let it go.

No use arguing.

Men are always wrong.

We Missed Him!!!

Because my brother-in-law is one of the most unorganized, poor planners I know, we MISSED Guy Fieri!!!

We arrived at the food show at one, it was over at three, and Guy performed at ELEVEN!!!

Everyone told us how good he was

Sure, rub it in.

I'm so disappointed!

Diners, Drive-In's, & Dives

Today, M and I are headed to another food show.

What makes this one so exciting? We are scheduled to hear Guy Fieri speak!


I probably won't hear a word he says because I will mesmerized by his good looks!

Is he HOT or what!?!
