I'm Behind, I know

I've had a little issue with discipline in posting my pictures this year. It never helps that my computer chooses when I wants to let me post stuff to the blog and when it just wants to sit and "think about it" for minutes on end.

I'm working on it and really am taking photos this year. I appreciate that you stopped by for a visit even though my photos are behind and now apparently dated incorrectly on these most recent ones. I'll have to work on correcting that...

If He Had His Wish... ~ 60/365


If he had his wish he would play video games every waking moment of the day. But since we don't allow it, he soaks up every minute he can on the weekends instead.

Up In The Sky ~ 59/365



We've gotten some much needed rain here the past few days, but this evening when the sun peeked out for a few moments I spotted this rainbow. Because it has been so dry lately, it's been a bit since I have seen one.

Seen Better Days ~ 58/365



We went bowling tonight for family night and these were my shoes. Near holes in the sides, stretched out way too much for my skinny feet, flip flopping around, and catching on the floor... I think it's time for them to go into retirement.

But hey... somehow I bowled my best game ever!

A better picture for today would have been this one, so let's just include it as a bonus:

His Favorite Presents ~ 57/365


I wish, oh how I wish I would have recorded the moment he opened up the box to reveal the jersey inside. Priceless!

I know, I know, this photo is almost a mirror image of yesterday's but I couldn't pass up the chance to photograph him with his favorites.

I Have a Twelve Year Old ~ 56/365


This is my son and he is twelve years old today. I'm still trying to figure out how in the world that happened.
Notice the football in his arms. This has become a new interest for him. Basketball is still his "first love" sports-wise though.

Koda ~ 55/365


Ever since our really cold temps a few months back that forced us to keep our nine year old shepherd inside for most of the day, Koda has decided that he wants nothing more than to be an indoor dog as much as possible. He's as happy as can be if he can be inside laying on his pillow.

Sleeping Babe ~ 54/365



I almost forgot to take a picture today (again!) so I raided the kids' room for ideas. What better than a sleeping babe to finish off the day?

Obsessed ~ 53/365


Have you ever played this game? It's call Picross and let's just say I'm a teeny bit obsessed with it. 

Guess what I'm going to do as soon as I get done posting this? ;0)

Surprise Party ~ 52/365


A friend of ours celebrated her 50th birthday today. I think we did a great job surprising her!

Tonight ~ 51/365


Yohn took the boys for a "Guys Night Out" at Chik Fil A, so Bethany took advantage and got our game on. Then we watched Wreck it Ralph. We didn't want to be left out of the food though, and had Daddy bring our order back when he returned. Mmmm... love their chicken and waffle fries!

On a side note... it just so happened to be Mother/Son date night at Chick Fil A. Too bad we didn't know ahead of time! ;(

Chatterbox ~ 50/365


Okay so his name is really Sky, but this crazy cat did nothing but purr and meow and roll around on the back of the chair trying to get someone's attention!

School Work ~ 49/365



Her books lie right where she left them in the middle of the floor (along with her jacket and gatorade bottle). She stayed home from school today due to an upset stomach, so she worked hard at getting the day's work done this afternoon and into the evening.

Tippy Top ~ 48/365


We were just about to leave but then they asked if they could climb to the tippy top. To give you some perspective on this here's this photo:


Bethany is the pink spot toward the bottom and she's a third to halfway up. The boys are the red and blue spot further up and they are between halfway and two-thirds to the top. They had a blast challenging themselves like this, but did not like the hike back down.

Nail Polish ~ 47/365


I surprised her with new nail polish and she insisted that we match.
