A lonely sock on Laundry Day...

Sisters

Blueberry Pancakes

My favorite breakfast!

Repotting

My mother sent me this plant for my birthday. It has already outgrown the original pot!

Hanging Out in the Bobber Aisle

Every Day - It's You I Live For!

Not exactly what it was intended for...

But what's a girl to do when Mommy works out on the Bowflex?

ending to a nice afternoon on the lake

I'm lovin' it

I shouldn't be, but I am!

Hardcore

This is me after my 10-mile race today. I tripped and fell in the first 1/4 mile. Best race ever!

Preparation

Preparing for my 10 mile race tomorrow!

Rain Storm

It only lasted about five minutes, but the rain really came down!

Hibiscus in my friend's front yard

Sushi to celebrate!

It's our 14th anniversary today, and what better way to celebrate than with sushi?!

Think Outside the Bottle

Good old tap water. :)

Too hot!

This temperature, this late at night is not my idea of fun!

Dare... to be awesome!

Today was Upgrade Day, and I chose the "Dare" - so far, I'm lovin' it!

S.O.U.S.

I finally captured the elusive S.O.U.S. (Squirrel Of Unusual Size) on film (well, camera phone, but whatever).

I would like you to please note a few things:

1. The S.O.U.S.'s body is as big as my foot
2. My foot is a size 8
3. He is not scared of me
4. It's possible he's thinking of attacking me
5. He probably told his cousin, on the other side of the park, to chase me. And chase me, his cousin did. Thankfully, I outran him.
6. I'm pretty sure that's Canada goose poop beside the menace.

Vow Renewal

Tonight, my friends John and Susan renewed their vows, one day before their tenth anniversary. They allowed me the privilege of taking the pictures!

Congratulations, and Happy Anniversary!

Just Do It

I got new sneakers yesterday. Nothing like running in a new pair of sneaks! These are my first pair of Nikes. I wasn't 100% convinced when I bought them, but, after a great workout today, I am now a believer!

Package in the mail...

I bought a piece of art when I was visiting my family in July. It arrived today (and there were a few treats added by my sister!)!

Even the roses are wilting...

It's 92 degrees today. Ick!

Bacon! (Camping, Day 3)

Lake Michigan (Camping, Day 2)

Camping, Day 1

Another camping treat - pistachios!

We had to test them and make sure they were ok before we actually went camping. :P

Wednesday Night Youth Group

CHEESEBALLS!

We are going camping this weekend with a group of families from our church. On Saturday night, we're having a potluck. I debated what to bring, until I went to Sam's Club today. You have got to love cheeseballs! Who eats healthy when they camp anyway (and how often is it appropriate to bring cheeseballs to a church potluck? I had to take advantage of this unique opportunity.)? :)

Two Minutes Early

I'm never early when I meet friends for lunch. I tried SUPER hard today to meet my friend not only on time, but early. I made it - by two minutes! I thought it was worthy of a picture of the day...

Cherries After Church

Fresh Fish!

My husband went fishing this morning and brought home some Yellow Perch - our favorite!

I am looking forward to dinner!
