That's Right, Folks, He's 45!


Even though the girls are gone to camp, Scott still chose to have a birthday. The boys and I celebrated without them.

We were sad.


I know it's hard to tell, but we missed them.


This year for his birthday, Scott had his right knee cut open and pre-arthritic growth cut out. That was yesterday. $10 says he'll try to play basketball next week. Because youth and skill are no match for old age and treachery. Guess which category he falls under. Go ahead. Guess.


Handsome bunch, aren't they? You can see where those darling boys get their good looks.

For the moment, I am the prettiest girl in the house.

Unless you like cats and dogs.

    Good looking family you have there...but you are the prettiest, by far.

    And with two less people in the house?

    More cake for you!

    You are definitely the prettiest girl in the house right now! And I do like cats and dogs. LOL

    Your whole family is a good looking bunch! Hope the girls are having big fun at camp!

    Awww, happy birthday, Scott. You should take that young, pretty wife of yours out to dinner and show her off a bit... just sayin...

    Whoa whoa whoa! The broken toe went to camp? Did she take a copy of her x-ray for maximum sympathy? :)

    Happy Birthday hubby! Now, the real question, will the girls be ticked that there was a celebration without them? Girls are like that I hear. : )

    Why is it that men feel physically fabulous even when they're recovering from surgery?! Well, except when they are whiney babies... ;-)

I am being published!

I know! It just reeks of excitement, doesn't it?  I know what you are thinking. "Who would publish that woman's thoughts?" The answer is a lovely little outfit called www.blog2print.com. In other words, I haven't been discovered. I am no closer to being a published author than I was yesterday EXCEPT that by Christmas I will be the proud owner of my very own blog book! I know. It's a little anticlimactic but here's the cool part. My friend, Becki, found me entertaining and directed me to a blog called www.josikilpack.blogspot.com.  She posted a little coupon code for 20% off which was supposed to end last week. Apparently, the code is still good and I saved $14. That said, you know it isn't exactly the cheapest way to get published but it's the best price I could find on publishing my blog!  And it requires very little technical know-how.  And that, my friends, tickles my heart. And, for a small price of your integrity and dignity, I will share the ...

Wordful Wednesday and Clever Much? Rarely!

Sometimes my brilliance blinds me! Speaking of brilliance, before we continue this discussion, if you are my mother in law, stop reading. Walk away. At least until after Christmas. Seriously. My own mother doesn't read my blog. I think it has something to do with words like "socially awkward" and "mortifying." She knows me. She doesn't have to read about me. She can just pretend like I turned out normal. Anyway, if the mother-in-law has exited the website, check out what she's getting for Christmas! TADA! I'd like to give a special shout out to the internet and whatever site I was cruising through last week for planting this idea into my head. Usually not this creative and I definitely don't know where I got the energy to take the kids out for pictures. Or go to Walmart for the frame. And Robert's for the mat. Costco for the pictures.  Yeah, I painted the frame, too. So not my style. Anymore. I also ordered a canvas print for my husband but I...
