Okay, end of rant.

SHIrT ends up my fault when I'm not even in the same state

Giggle....giggle...I have all sons.

She's really my best buddy. My husband calls her my "Mini-me" except now she's taller than me. We have a great time together, she inherited my love for all animals. My sons are awesome, they are so much fun and really feed my addiction to sports. (I can watch them play all day, every day!)

Well that was a mistake. I had to run out during it to close the door.  Talking about giving birds a bath. It did cool things off though. 

We didn't get much of anything out here until about 3 am. Then my house was shaking from the thunder, and poor Daffodil was scared. My dog woke me up because she was flapping around in her crate because of the noise. I had to leave a light on for her, and she went to sleep. (My husband would call me nuts, but it's always worked for my birds. They just need to see!)

I have SO many pictures. We brought her over to her boyfriends house, since it was HIS Prom, so she could take pictures with him and all his friends. We're friendly with his parents, and his oldest sister used to babysit for my kids when she was in HS!!  We took hundreds of pictures, in the sweltering heat. I'm glad it's over-it was very stressful getting everything together. LOL. all the dressing up and hair and makeup, and shoes, and hairspray...I'm just not good at all that. lau.gif

She was playing WoW and Daffodil found it very intriguing.

Thank you! Her boyfriend knows how lucky he is. They've been dating for a long time (17 months) he's alot older AGE wise, but he's kinda a nerd, she's his first girlfriend, he's into, um, STAR WARS, (He's a Jedi warrior-LOL) and well, he's like part of the family. She came home directly from the prom, no after party for her. His parents and two older sisters have done a good job with him. He's always respectful, and the funny thing is that HIS father threatened his life if he touched her. My husband doesn't have to say a word, but of course he did the first time he met him. We all understand each other. gig.gif

Not sure how sanitary that is, but what the hey, everyone seemed to enjoy it regardless.

 

Stay dry everyone! Captain America and Princess Merida signing off!

Oh such cuteness!! My littlest one had the "Muscled" Spiderman costume, and wore it until it fell apart. Your older daughters expression is priceless. She looks proud of her sister. That's awesome. Love the princess dress. love.gif

I'm telling you-sounds familiar. My husband gets his panties in a twist over some really ridiculous stuff. Sometimes he'll come out with something, and I'll give him a "If my eyes could throw daggers, you'd be dead" look, and he's like "Oh, did I say that out loud? Darn" sometimes, it makes me laugh, sometimes I want to throttle him. 

 

Right now, he's eating breakfast, and talking to the nutty cockatiel about how I am not a morning person, and how he hopes I didn't snap at the bird this morning and hurt his feelings., since I'm not a morning person.  Honestly, if he wasn't amusing....

I love stuff like that-we live around the block from the historic part of our town, and they have a barn sale every now and again at some some of the old farm houses. I don't go very often, since I have no place to put more stuff, but I'm going to do some giving away and cleaning out of stuff...then I can get more STUFF! celebrate.gif

 

(I'm a fan of old barn/country stuff!)

 

Have fun! Take pictures!!

Eh, why bother. We know what you mean, you know what you mean. That's all that matters.
