Fast Faster Fastest

What a cute (and free!) collection Susan has just released! My son is deprived and doesn't have a "real" wagon, but he has this little plastic one that carts around all manner of toys and sticks and dirt. And he loves to run with it behind him - his goal is definitely fast - faster - fastest!

The Easy Life

This is just a bit of fun for stock photo challenge at DAQ.

I detest, loath and despise frogs, so this was a challenge for me in more ways than one. The extraction was particularly painful, especially with him staring at me the whole time! LOL!

Roses for Mom

On Thursday night, we went to Mama's for Anna's birthday dinner. Oh man! What a feast! Anyway, while there, we usually get outside at some point and Mama's yard is always beautiful. This time, we were out in the front field flying these little rubber band powered balsa wood frames (well, I was taking pictures and Jay was flying the planes with them). While I was inside, Jay took the kids over to Grandma's rose garden and they picked some for me.

I tell you, there is nothing that can prick a mother's heart more than to see her children holding up flowers to her ~ at least for me anyway! So here are a couple of shots I got of them. Of course, Olivia was more willing to stop and pose, but Daniel was on the move!
