Daddy's Girl

This Little Piggy...

We have a new obsession around here. With toes.




As soon as she wakes up, she has to grab them.



And hold onto them. All day long.



But I can't complain. Its a free toy that she can't lose!



I only wish I was that flexible. Or something.

Jake and Sarah Stump

This past Saturday, we saw our friend, Sarah Butler, marry the love of her life, Jake Stump. Sarah was once my camper when I was a camp counselor. That made me feel a little bit old.



The wedding was gorgeous!

Congrats, Sarah and Jake! We are so happy for you!

How Does Your Garden Grow?

This picture was from Saturday morning's harvest.

My garden apparently grows. And grows. And grows.

9 quarts of pickles canned

12 quarts of tomatoes canned

4 gallon size bags of corn in the freezer

38 squash

22 cucumbers

5 gallon rubbermaid container full of potatoes

[so. far.]

...and did I mention that we havent yet harvested the peppers or sweet potatoes, or that we have sunflowers that are over 11 feet tall?

How does your garden grow?!

Date Six.

Date six was the classic, uncreative, yet always pleasing, dinner-and-a-movie date.



We enjoyed dinner at one of my favorite places...
[thank you, Dad and Angie for the giftcard!!!]



I wanted to take a picture of us with our yummy meals, but when I pulled the camera out at dinner, my husband gave me a mortified look and begged me to just take a picture of the sign outside the restaurant. He doesn't enjoy life in the spotlight quite as much as his wife and thought the flash from the camera would make people... you know... look at us. (so?!) Haha.



After dinner, we went through Starbucks drive-thru to get drinks to sneak into the movies. After all, a caramel frappacino is sooo much better than a coke slurpee, idontcarewhoyouare.

Then, we saw Eclipse. And I wasn't allowed to photograph us in the movie theater either. :) And in case you haven't been to see Eclipse yet, I thought it was better than the first two movies. The Twilight Saga hasn't disappointed me yet. Although, the books are better than the movies, just sayin.

Our dinner and a movie date was fun and relaxing. :) Can't wait to see what the hubby plans this week... although... I did request no more 8 mile hikes...

Not My Husband Monday

My husband did not set his alarm for 5:15am, and head to the park-n-ride at 6am to meet a buddy from work to ride together to the job site 45 minutes away. Upon arrival at the meeting place, he did not look for his friend, and then decide to lean his seat back for a minute while waiting on him. He did not fall asleep for an hour and a half in his truck, and then upon waking realize that his friend was not meeting him there that day, and he was over 30 minutes late to work... and work was 45 minutes away. Not my husband! :)
